Register your own .mil Domain

Posted by CmdrTaco on Sunday January 26, 2003 @03:39AM from the someone-should-register-paper.mil dept.

JWSmythe writes " As reported in This Story at theregister.co.uk ,and on dailyrotten.com, it seems the US Department of Defense has dropped the ball. Not only can you register a .mil domain, but you can find "secret" domains that aren't publically known (the gov't uses security through obscurity?). I'm looking forward to hacker.mil, warez.mil, and porn.mil."

Early reports indicated that Jenna was involved, but this has to be corroborated! :-)

Now with all the linking on slashdot to .mil sites, I can see the military thinking it's a huge DDOS terrorist attack!

Now repeat after me...I will not slashdot military websites...:)

> Anyone want to bet how much jail time they'll get?

Probably none at all. This seems like one of those special "extra-constitutional" areas where someone just disappears and winds up in Git-Mo (Guantanamo Bay). Perhaps "volunteering" their time being chased through the jungle with sensors attached so that 'American Army II' will be even more realistic. :-)

You think that NataliePortman.mil is funny, wait till you see 270 pounds of 5'8" nerd huffing and puffing his way through the jungles of Cuba with the Marines in hot pursuit. :-) That would be great.
