More Meta domains than I thought — Facebook registered
Firm registered domains using a proxy service at its own domain name registrar.
The prior week I wrote regarding how Meta, nee Facebook, registered a relatively modest number of domains for its rebrand. It turns out the firm registered a lot more domains through its own registrar, AppDetex, and did so using a proxy service. It recently removed the privacy protection on the domains.
The domains cover many products and corporate initiatives, such as diversityatmeta.com, facebookfrommeta.net, metaf8conference.com, metafacebookgroups.com, and metainstagram.tv.
Meta registered the domains on October 20, at regarding the same time that the Verge noted that the firm was making a name change.
Registering domains with the word meta in them that also contain a Facebook brand is a bad idea. That’s cybersquatting. But I still think the firm will have trouble going following other meta-related domains since of its popular and generic use for the metaverse. Usage will matter.
The list of registrations as tracked by DomainTools is below.
