Has this ever happened to you

[Want2learn]

I was curious if there were domains that deal with offenses or offenders. Kind of like directories of bad people. I was thinking maybe something to sell to law enforcement, govt, or concerned citizens.

Anywho I went to the rapist dot com and it took me to a therapy website. Very strange. I wonder how many websites are like that? Type in say gold dot com and it takes you to say a travel website, for example.

Is that called something in the domain world? Just curious.

So you typed in "the rapist" .com and were surprised when you got to a therapy site?

However... one company with a sense of humor owns Hers.com, which takes you to His.com, which is their main site.

I was kind of kidding. I mean therapist broken is the rapist . . . So it did get me to wondering about what it means when it sends you to another site. I was happy @biggie answered my question. It was kind of a play on words though

 

[ultradog]

thank god you were kidding. Sorry, I don't have the keenest sense of humor myself and can't always tell. I did wonder why on earth you typed "the."
