> NSA announcing they were dropping all illegal activities I was thinking of something more along the lines of "NSA brings suit against NSA after it learns that tailored operations group was secretly spying on other divisions of the NSA".
> Wired has learned that the NSA has filed a confidential request for records from the NSA due to suspected illegal activities.

Sony does own the .sony gTLD: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/request-2014081-... More generally, as part of ICANN's gTLD approval process, if the gTLD being applied for is a trademark, then it can't go to anyone else besides the trademark holder. So there's actually a lot more assurances that you are dealing with who you expect to be dealing with with gTLDs versus random domain names on .com.
Honest question, trademarked according to who? The Internet is a global thing now, so who wins if there's two entities that happen to both have valid claims to a trademark?
April fools I wanted the most: - NSA announcing they were dropping all illegal activities, - Water allowed on board of planes, - ISIS converting to Christianity, - Apple patenting the patent, - Snapchat releasing a payment system Note that April Fools is on December 28th in Spannish culture. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day#Comparable...
Water isn't allowed on board planes? I usually bring an empty nalgene through security and then fill it in one of the many water fountains in the terminals. Works well!

Because you might want to have multiple vhosts running on localhost, separated by hostname.
If you host is, say "zeus.barrera.io" you can use: test-service-1.zeus.barrera.io dummy-server.zeus.barrera.i Etc. No need to create new (possible conflicting, definitely not future proof) TLDs.
