domains Amazon acquires Amazonfarts.com

I was looking through my morning DomainTools Registrant Alert email, and I saw an amusing domain name that caught my attention. I hate to toot Amazon’s horn, but the company is now the registrant of AmazonFarts.com, a domain name that was created in August of 2020.

It's interesting that Amazon run their own registrar but keep their Amazon-containing domains at Markmonitor - that domain is now at Markmonitor - that article says:

In looking at the historical Whois records, it appears that AmazonFarts.com was originally registered under Whois privacy at Amazon’s domain registrar, Amazon Registrar, Inc. My guess is that Amazon caught wind of the registration, and its legal team worked with the registrant to secure the domain name. It is notable that Amazon allows registrants to register Amazon domain names at its registrar though.

Doesn't seem to be that Amazon's registrar welcomes the general public - just developers:
