ICANN would likely not grant such a tld due to similarity concerns with .us/.gov.

You can do the same thing without a tld of course: <original domain>.pubmirror.com (or whatever you want to use) is just about as easy despite an extra dot. My personal fqdn is even shorter than ".usgov"! The hard part is recreating/mirroring all the stuff.

It is possible for 1yr TC of many people here. But you need to apply and wait. And the same hostile government, using ICANN, can can your TLD.

Just like browsers can invalidate a root certificate, so can DNS servers replace their root DNS servers, at least for specific TLDs such as this one, thus bypassing ICANN entirely.

Like https://govwayback.com/? It enables trivial access to everything as archived before the current admin took office.

I think if you were rich, you'd do us a bigger favor by just buying the USGov.

Musk already did that. Doesn't seem to be working out that well for the "us".

I know absolutely nothing about xnx, which leads to me believe that he'd probably do a far better job with it.

Right, so at this point the bar for improvement is low.
