Is there a citation for EFF's claim that "Originally used only for government websites, .US is now open to anyone with a connection to the U.S."? RFC 1386 section 1.3 says "In the past, the computers registered in the US Domain were primarily owned by small companies or individuals with computers at home."

It seems you may be correct -- I'll pass it along to Mitch.

I have multiple .us domains. The only difference is that most registrars that follow the rules may not use whois privacy services for that TLD. I don't have a reference handy for that rule.

Funny, I was expecting some materials about American rocket and missile programs on this website.

Now watch whoever made/owns "Blues Brothers" come after them.
