    Most people don’t think of countries when they see TLDs like AF. Most people wouldn’t think .tv stands for Tuvalu.

      Most don’t know but the one who bought it would, although they probably did it anyway cause it looks cool. Same happened with fmhy but I am guessing the reasoning for that was the cost.

        Many people who buy domains don’t know, because many domains are so ubiquitous. Another good example most buyers don’t know is the “.io”

          Yeah I can see that but if it was me there’s no way I am buying a domain without doing proper research. I can only imagine how big of a headache changing a domain would be.
