It is operated by Freenom that provides free domain name registration. It is often associated with malicious activities like phishing, spam and cybersquatting. Since 2023, with Meta suing Freenom, new domain registrations have stopped, and in November 2023, ICANN terminated its registrar accreditation agreement with Freenom due to failure to cure breaches of the agreement within 21 days of notice.
