Isn't the .ml TLD administered by freenom? How can we be sure that lemmy.ml is safe from a hostile takeover by this shady company with a history of hijacking high-traffic domains and demanding more money?

Freenom is the registry, but paid domains are still subject to ICANN rules and freenom can't just seize the domain
