Apparently, they’ve been available since 2014.

    Very interesting thank you. Does it work similar to federation wherein if ICANN don’t recognise you you cannot be linked to? Or is this organisation where the buck stops with the internet.

    Are the likes of tor sites registered there?

      That has to do with Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), run by ICANN, who oversee IP address allocation and root zone management of DNS. DNS is the database/system that maps domain names to IP addresses, if you’re not aware.

      No, tor has nothing to do with regular domain names.
