you have your answer:)))

NU is the country code for Niue.

Not Nauru. Nauru is NR.

NU is an interesting story, the control of the domain was granted in exchange for providing internet services to the island, and its operation was later transferred to the Swedish Internet Foundation. The islanders want the domain back

Fixed.

doMEn is the registry of .ME.

The company has now responded and confirmed that the domain was suspended due to OFAC-related compliance requirements.

The domain t.me has been placed on serverHold due to OFAC-related compliance requirements

Identity Digital also stated that, under its agreements with accredited registrars, it cannot provide further details directly to third parties. Any additional communication regarding the registry action must go through the domain's registrar, GoDaddy." [weird response, this is a serverHold, not a client lock]

As you can see, the Montenegrin government is NOT at fault. It’s a decision made by the two biggest stakeholders in the .ME registry, which together hold over 70%: the American companies GoDaddy and Identity Digital. In my opinion, it’s extremely sad that the countries managing TLDs have so little autonomy and are also constantly accused of doing wrong when it’s not their fault.

Better examples: Tuvalu (.TV), Anguilla (.AI)

Both of these countries (anguilla is not independent though) only get a cut of the money from the domains; all the technical management is done by GoDaddy for .TV and Identity Digital for .AI. In my opinion, very sad.

.AI was run by a local guy in Anguilla (Vince Cate) utilizing the https://cocca.org.nz/ domain SaaS, but Identity Digital took over in late 2024.

But I strongly disagree with your conclusion. gTLDs are also run by profit-driven companies and operate under ICANN's US-rooted system. ccTLDs at least offer some jurisdictional autonomy and diversity.

And many "trendy" ccTLDs are not actually run by unstable local governments. .me, for example, is operated with GoDaddy and Identity Digital, while .to relies on Tucows, a Canadian company.

So the irony is that these ccTLDs often end up controlled or technically managed by the same North American companies you consider more trustworthy. Very few small/island countries actually manage their ccTLD directly, which is extremely sad.

With all this useless slop, he’s literally arguing against his own point.

Proxy/CDN: HTTPS (443) → Origin server: plain HTTP (80)

(example: Cloudflare in Flexible mode)

If the origin server uses any proper TLS configuration, even a self-signed certificate, this method stops working. It only succeeds when the upstream connection to the origin is unsecured.

If you want to test this on a random site without Cloudflare or reverse proxy in general on HTTP: curl http://www.digiboy.ir/boobs.jpg -v
