    There are some domain names that have requirements but nothing like you’re thinking. The only one I would automatically consider as providing useful information would be .gov.

        .gov and .mil are controlled by the American government and they are reserved for use by American government websites and American military websites respectively.

      That’s kinda wild to me. You’d think there’d be some sort of checks to make sure certain domains are only used by people who have been vetted as reputable.

      Though I suppose in the age of misinformation being everywhere it’s not too surprising.

      Edit: Idk why this is being downvoted but I’d love to know. I’m not very computer savvy. I know more than the average person but I’m not an “IT guy”. My concerns come from a lack of understanding. Help me understand.
