This is why a bought a domain. I'm going to do a similar change, but I hope it's forever.

I think countries should have a free domains for normal people to do the same, and prevent these companies from having power over something that's basically a utility and necessity, based on a decision you made once in your life when you were 13.

If it wasn't for the PATRIOT Act I would've said the USPS should've gotten with the times and offered low-cost email services.

Considering how much they love supporting spam, it would be interesting to see what this would look like.

Yes, someone did suggest this to me at the time but it was too much for me then to figure out DKIM, DMARC and SPF then. Not something the average person can do.

Nations providing free (or at least consistent) domains is an excellent idea.
