Attract Mode moved
Domain squatters ate Chrysoula’s domain, attractmode.net. So she’s moved to a new home, as similar to her old home as possible. She’s at www.attract-mode.net. Consider this: your domain name feels like a piece of property you own. But imagine if cars were handled like domain names. If you’re late registering your car, even by one day, someone can come and drive your car off. If you want your car back, you’ll have to pay them many, many times the registration fee to get it — if they’ll sell it back to you at all. Legally, it’s their property now, not yours.
I don’t have a point to this rant; I’m just irritated at how much the infrastructure of the internet has come to serve the interests of the large, powerful, and (most importantly) lawyered. Sometimes I feel like we’re approaching a world in which basic functions of our day to day lives will be impossible without legal representation.
