Could you elaborate on this unlimited TLD? I'm a bit out of the loop (but had heard of the .porn TLD!). What's going on? Isn't this going to cause a lot of confusion and compound the issue of domain squatters?

Anyone can apply for and potentially get, a top level domain. If you can prove that you deserve it more than everyone else, then it's yours (sort of).

I thought it costs 180k a year to run a TLD?
