This is an idea at this point, the next round of gTLD applications is currently open and we are in the process of applying and we are trying to garner support!

Could do something like .brave and just sidestep ICANN?

With your hosts file or running a DNS on localist you can do whatever you want

The only mistake was not putting all US domains under .us, now the US has an an exorbitant privilege to print and enforce rules on new TLDs.

I mean, that wasn’t done by mistake
