I don't know, man. These companies aren't going to run out and blow 7-figures on this extension and if they aren't spending money on it... is there a point?

It's a good promotion for nTLDs..

A url that looks like I would pick up adware/spyware is not good promotion. The main url doesn't even load.

I agree.

Facebook deserve a better domain name for promotions. hacktv.xyz is a terrible name.

I see that, like I said, looks like a url you would be careful to click, that you might pick up something bad. And the main url is still not working.

They are using it exactly what it is supposed to be used for - cheap throwaway promotions.

You want to brand; you use .COM. You want to host a town hall or make a public announcement, .XYZ

After all... .XYZ is supposed to be for 'whatever'.

C'mon people every penny counts when you have shareholders to answer to - they picked .xyz because you can register that for just $1.99 someplaces (like Dynadot).

Why? If public announcement made in .com no one will visit? Why should they buy .xyz for townhall?

Let's file that one between the Harry Potter books and the Hunger Games series - same genre.

Hacktv.xyz seems to be kept by gandi.net (not sure whats up there).
As far as I can tell, Facebook is kept by Facebook.

So what we have here is probably a portal of sorts offered by a service through an quasi existing domain name that actually has no real bearing or use by Facebook other then a means to an end???

Just a thought.

.xyz pump brought to you by Google (Alphabet) and Facebook

Until a company wants your nTLD domain and is willing to big bucks for it, the fact that a reg fee domain in the same extension as your portfolio holdings is being used does little for your wallet.
