I asked this as a comment on my previous post, but I still have some questions. 1: If ML stands for Mali and they’re not from Mali, then why would they represent a foreign country? 2: Since it’s not Mali, what does the ML stand for? If it’s a pair of letters, it represents a country or stands for two words. Machine Learning? McCartney Lennon? Mega Lemmy?

    And by “cheap” we mean literally free in some cases.

    Mali’s government was letting Freenom manage it. So it was a free domain name like .tk, with all the problems that entails with misuse.

    Tagging you @favrion because no one seems to have mentioned this, and I think it answers your question.
