Re: Map of the Internet
#43I put my IP in, and it put a blue marker way off on the left in the middle of the black... now I know it is a bit of a joke to leave New Zealand off maps, but geeze :)
Could be 'afk'?

#45Taiwan (Province of China) https://ipv4.dev.sarl/@zoom=10&ip=203.187.74.93 Interesting that a Taiwan IP range would be listed as "Province of China".
As others have noted, this is a legalese/formality issue (copied from ISO-3166), not a political statement. Note that IP ranges from provinces in mainland China are listed as "China", not "Province of China" (e.g. https://ipv4.dev.sarl/@zoom=16&ip=203.187.74.93). Additionally, the formal name of Taiwan is "Republic of China", so the loophole for formal purposes, as others have mentioned, is that the term "China" is ambiguous.
I think the more interesting thing is that Crimean IPs are listed as part of Russia (e.g. https://ipv4.dev.sarl/@zoom=16&ip=77.121.55.93). Practically speaking Crimea operates as province of Russia nowadays, but I believe formally/diplomatically most countries still recognize it as part of Ukraine. That's almost a reversal of Taiwan, which operates as an independent country in practice, but for formal/diplomatic purposes is considered as part of "One China".

It’s in the standard that way: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2
>ISO country name follows UN designation (due to political status of Taiwan within the UN)

TIL there are ".ford" and ".lincoln" TLDs https://ipinfo.io/AS3389#block-domains https://nic.ford/ https://nic.lincoln/

There are cars that are more expensive than that, so setting up a new (g)TLD is really not that difficult or expensive for any moderately large organization.
At this point, just about any random word in the dictionary has probably been made into a TLD:

#49I’d love to see IPv6
Re: Map of the Internet
#50Site is kinda dying (at least in my region of IP) but I looked up .sarl: it's like .gmbh or .ltd but French.
I was surprised that there is a TLD for sàrl, given that it is only used in some french-speaking countries. Interesting.
Still it is likely more used than .srl, which is the equivalent for Italy and Romania.
