I am moving my domains off NameCheap too. This is ridiculous behaviour from a for-profit organisation; the only transaction I am interested in with Namecheap is I give you money and you act as the middle man in registering my domain.

Spare me the political and social grandstanding. I am not interested in your views on either topic.



It looks like Namecheap has 1700 employees in Ukraine and an office in Kharkiv: https://www.namecheap.com/careers/ukraine


Spare him!


What happened to "business owners have the right to refuse service or turn away customers" ?

Like it or not everything is politcal


I guess it goes both ways, doesn't it? Cos do what they want, and so do customers. All us 3rd parties can do is shrug our shoulders.


Some people are getting bombed and invaded.

And you complain about moving domain names.

God I hate web developers...


And namecheap banning russian TLDs will not stop the bombings, will not stop Putin, and will not help Ukraine.

I hate people who think they can solve geopolitical problems with SQL commands.


Trade and economic sanctions each chip away at the Russian oligarchy, who Putin does listen to.

"Stops bombs" isn't the minimum bar for behavior affecting change.
