.theguardian Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .theguardian Domain

News publishing and journalism framed the .theguardian application in ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. The string incorporates a definite article, an uncommon construction at the top level that reproduces a masthead exactly as readers know it — and, more practically, disambiguates a common English noun that an unrelated life insurer holds rights to in another market.

News organizations carry a specific exposure a closed namespace addresses: fabricated articles on lookalike domains, circulated as screenshots, trade directly on a masthead's credibility. The extension is not currently active in the DNS root zone and is not available for registration by any party.
