Please ban .co.cc domains!

Even 1$ cost/domain will deter some people from releasing loads of co.cc proxies (perfect clones of each other) in a day and hogging the major proxy lists. (Isn't that a good thing?)

Ok, add the ICANN fees too.

I don't know... there is a fee for all, anything else is a matter of personal choice, some can use kilu.de or any other free hosts allowing proxies, others can buy expensive servers or .pl domains instead of .info for example. From another point of view anyone could use .co.cc free so no one should feel discriminated.

As i said i believe the guy using them has many free coupons, even 1$ per proxy is not so chep to submit 5-10 proxies and make few $ in return. He is doing all for free. Without the hosting fees is 100 % profit for him i think. IMO

Free and cheap are two different things !

I think all co.cc from same person, who is creating and posting to techfaq in every hour.

Man you know it's kinda funny cos I don't even think he is getting his returns back !

Just look at the list now.

3 info's and rest co.cc's !

As of right now the entire first page of 'new proxies' is flooded with .co.cc's. Save your money, it's not even worth it to submit to Tech-Faq anymore. The list should be named after the greedy spammer.

Hopefully this co.cc flood is only because sensible proxy owners don't want to pay for TLDs during the summer, but still, the co.cc will only increase during proxy season, lowering our exposure and in the end traffic ever more.

Co.CC should really either be banned or charged extra.
