Reading this felt like a trip through a portal into the nascent Internet in late 90s. I hope this never goes down.
I remember a while back "gamil.com" used to be a website that offered email services.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
My favourite 90's style website, that's still running, is http://www.armory.com/armory.html , complete with FTP Index and user finger files.
Man I miss backspacing through a URL and sometimes hitting an FTP page with files I wasn't necessarily supposed to be able to download. Halcyon days.

it is not "unexciting by Internet standards". what the heck, it is gorgeous.
I find it even technically outstanding. Is that some sort of natural Moire pattern on it's back? Spliced-in turkey genes? I find this cat oddly fascinating.
I don't know anything about this Brazilian Gail company, but I hope nobody uses them.
Can someone please clarify the USA legal basis Can anyone sue you for owning a domain and say that it's their trademark ?? I tought that the .com domains were 100% free of that bullshit..or how else is there so many domain shakals reserving thousands of domains..? related to their appeal: https://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/decisions/html/2006/d200...
Not only they can sue you, but they can make your life a living hell if you choose to fight them back. See one of the most famous examples: http://nissan.com/
GAIL[1] is also the name of a publicly traded Indian Oil Company. Just like most pre-Internet companies that "comes online", they also went with gailonline.com just like how SBI went with sbionline.com. However, for SBI, I saw recently that they have become pretty Internet savvy -- they own the `.sbi` TLD. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAIL
Also a bakery chain in the UK, https://gailsbread.co.uk/ (Gail.co.uk is squatted by a speculator).
