Re: Is the .to (Tonga) domain completely rogue and should be removed?

My question here would be are these actual businesses or paper companies that
exist for the sake of more nefarious scheme.

I am certain that when 1 asserts that he represents another country
that the web page they would write would be indicitive of things
and or relating to things about that particular culture and the things
they have to the offer the world and their cultural heritage and
associated demographics that show gross national product with
a breakdown into their repective catagories.

Picking up the ring ring cloofon would be helpful in this instance.

So, to spell it out, the question is not whether or not there are
non-porn sites in the .to domain. The question is whether or not there
are any Tongan activities in the Tongan domain? Since the US Consulate
of the Kingdom of Tonga isn't even a Tongan site one wonders just what
purpose this domain is serving.

Where does it say that to operated in a ccTLD you must physically be
located in that country?

Moore Electronics Ltd., a company physically located in Tonga

http://www.tongatapu.net.to/sponsors/tess/default.htm
Tonga Electronic Secretary Service, a company physically located in Tonga

http://www.tongatapu.net.to/tonga/news/default_l.htm
is filled with lots of businesses in the Kingdom of Tonga

Since the above links prove that their is indeed Tongan activities, can we
move on.
