7 Dirty Words Policy For .US Domains

The registry for .us domains, NuLevel, has a policy that forbids seven specific “dirty” words in a domain name. I found out the hard way (not really that much of a hardship, but it pissed me off that my domain got cancelled without explenation) and will list them here in no particular order of importance for your enlightenment.

WARNING: Adult language – Reader Discretion Cautioned!

  • Shit
  • Piss
  • Fuck
  • Cunt
  • Cocksucker
  • Motherfucker, and
  • Tits (really, tits?!?)

Brings to mind the classic George Carlin routine where he lists the dirty words you can’t use on broadcast TV. Oddly enough the words are identical. Coincidence? Me thinks not. Be advised this is NOT a joke.
