Listen,
Way back in the early days of the Internet, it was believed that website NAMES were a big deal
"Get in on the good real estate," they all said, imagining they knew. "Dictionary names are limited and everyone will want to pay big money to get one."
"It's like having a location on the virtual street," they said, "There's only one business.com so having business dot com must be worth tens of millions of dollars."
Now after 10 15 25 years of experience with the bullshit, we know that the domain names are not worth shit.
They never were. There's no "street". Every location on the internet is one click away from every other location. Nobody really much uses the domain names. You can only remember so many names. And actually, nobody goes to websites any longer. Since 2012 they just go to their apps.
So the dumb top level domain isn't a thing, either, and it never really was. They wasted a lot of money on this. There's no danger, nothing will change, nobody ever believed that dot org websites are any different from any other website. cellar.org will remain exactly the same as it has for all these years and nobody cares about dot org.
