What about all the other weird TLDs that aren't being used? Like .walmart

I would have thought that Walmart.walmart would be a valid link but it isn't, so what's the point?!

Weird TLDs shouldn’t exist to begin with. Just more evidence that ICANN doesn’t know what the hell they’re doing.

Weird TLDs should totally exist! Just because Walmart isn’t capitalizing on it doesn’t mean that I shouldn’t be able to make hello.friends for my use.
