Controlled from Nostr.\n\n#asknostr #devstr #dns\n\nWithout going too much into design details, npubs that used to have their valid NIP-05 `_@domain` could keep controlling their domain records after their domain takedown. Records are resolvable through ordinary nameservers that could be used as an alternative to Quad9/CF/etc., could be run by whoever wants, and could be advertised with DHCP in Nostr-VPN/Obscura/etc. by default.\n\nTLS will possibly keep working normally after a domain takedown until the cert expires. Useful for site redirection when it's accessed from an ordinary browser.\n\nHTTPS could be allowed with self-signed certs (at least for the taken-down domains) in the native Nostr clients. Relays would just keep working.\n\nAll this would to some degree backfire on domain registrars (or whoever is involved) every time they conform to a domain ban requirement: with some limitations, the original authentic domain owners will be awarded a forever free domain when it's banned. Except these lucky banned domain owners will be actual owners, independent from ICANN.\n"}
