    Is Acorn concerned about the Online Safety Act?

    Thanks for your detailed reply. From what I've read of the issue, the steps you've mentioned aren't sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Act. It's an extraordinarily broad and overbearing legal framework, like using a net the width of the ocean to catch a couple of fish. So it will...

    Sorry, don't know what happened to the second URL. I'll try again below. https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/401475/

    Is Acorn concerned about the Online Safety Act?

    Was wondering how Acorn admins were planning to approach the Online Safety Act? It seems a lot of forums are shutting down ahead of the mid-March deadline. As far as I can see, the new law is a classic example of overreach by people who don't understand how the internet works. There are very...

    Nominet considering redundancies

    I remember now why I gave up on all things Nominet after years of campaigning hard. Nothing to gain, only arguments.

    Nominet considering redundancies

    The damage was done when they introduced .uk and jacked registration and renewal prices up so much. They had a great little business and ruined it by getting greedy. Now like all organisations that overextend themselves, the bill's come due.

    Some Sad News I'm Afraid...

    Simple registrar with free .co.uk transfers in and out?

    Can anyone recommend a registrar that's easy to work with and which allows .co.uk transfers in and out for free? (Scenario, bit of a head scratcher: I have a buyer waiting for a name, but they're having problems working with their first choice of registrar, so I want to be able to suggest...

    Domain Summit Update on Summit

    Thanks, Phil. Ditto. Those parties... good times! (Full disclosure: Popped in here at random as I was clicking through a stack of old bookmarks. That's how long it's been. And then this thread caught my eye. I don't expect to become a regular again, though.)

    Domain Summit Update on Summit

    I just don't think the "domain industry business but not domain investor" audience you're talking about is here on Acorn. The other responses in this thread would seem to back that up. But perhaps you could give a few specific examples of the sorts of companies you had in mind in that category?

    Domain Summit Update on Summit

    An interesting thread, with a lot of thoughtful replies. For what it's worth, you are trying to organise a domain conference in one of the markets I'd say cares least about the wider world. That's not some backhanded slur about insularity, but a reflection of the UK domain space. People with...
