Verisign: Over 150 Domains Registered Over Government ShutDown

Verisign the registry for the .com and .net registry just released a graph showing a lot of activity with people registering domain names involving the Government Shutdown.  It appears from the graph there have been over 150 domain names registered since October 1st containing the word :”shutdown”

We also wrote a post about the domain name GovernmentShutdown.com on October 1st, so we are going to take partial credit for the volume of registrations since that date.

Using our DomainView-Grapher (a beta tool available from Verisign Labs) we examined the number of domains registered over the last 3 months containing the word “shutdown.”

We did a search and found 126 .com and .net domain name registrations since October 1 containing the word Government some of which would also be on the shutdown list.  I guess starting next week the hot topic might be default. Actually there are three of those registered as well since October 1

govdefault.com
usgovdefault.com
governmentdefault.com

Here are the Government domains that were registered since October 1
