used that way. No certificate maker should ever have included it (and I've never heard of that as it would always indicate a scam CA as you cannot own that domain by definition).

The Majority if not all did add the .local, .lan and others, unless you think all CA are scams then I wouldn't say they are a scam.

Yeah from a quick search looks like at least GoDaddy and Digicert offered them.

Nov 2015 is when CA/Browser Forum set the standard to not allow internal domains. So looks like most if not all would have supported it before that.

Damn, that's a major security hole! So I could go get a cert issued for a domain someone else used and there had to be zero verification since.... there was nothing to verify!

Yup.

Why buy at one, then move the registrar to another?

OH! Because CF doesn't let you buy, but that's where we want the account to be.

What account? CF will be the registrar, but only from transfers?
that sucks.

Yes, it's weird. You can only transfer to them, not buy directly.

You can renew there though?

yes, once you transfer you are all set. Just the initial purchase doesn't work.

I was saying bad faith in the other direction, attempting to start a business under the same name as a domain name that was already in use.

He clearly states it's for a brand, not a company.

Same thing, though. Attempting to start a new brand that is already in use.

Purchased and parked is not in use. It is “available for the right price.”

Is no one reading what I wrote? I specified everything that people have said in my original statement.

2 questions for those of you that moved to CF for domain registration:

Are you using CF for DNS. If you have a web hosting provider, do you use their nameservers in your CF dashboard.
