It's the internet. There are no laws. I could buy a .org and put porn on it if I wanted.
ICANN technically controls the rules, but they're very very loose to say the least.
Also, there's a billion TLD now. You can get almost anything; bitcoinnutjob.ninja is probably for sale right now.
.ninja would be pretty terrible though right?
.com is always considered best?
.org seems decent - authoritative.
.net is like a value version of .com
.co.uk .us etc fine if only for that country
do people rate the rest of the .whatevers or doesnt this matter anymore ?
Well, ICANN just released a BUNCH of new TLDs this year, I believe.
I mean, we have EVERYTHING now. Here's just a few examples:
.properties
.club
.vc
.tv (old)
.io (oldish)
.social
.reviews
.community
.events
.rentals
.dance
.democrat
.condos
.cool
.sexy
.directory

Now looking at those domain names, you could pick up say: "housing.reviews" and make a website about reviews of rental properties or something.
Could do "newyork.social", and make a social site for new york people.
Could also do like "newyork.events" or something -- these are FULLY working domain names mind you. And they're easier to remember than "housingreviews.com or .org or .net".
