Farewell Co.CC?
Found on Snat on Thursday, 15 November 2012
Due to its free nature (and it’s $10 for as many as you want), Co.CC was abused and used for scams and spamming and was even de-listed by Google at one point although they did re-enable it. Getting back to the article on hand a few days ago Co.CC seems to have removed its DNS records which ultimately has stops its own site from working and every sub domain it provided.
Could have been disabled due to an attack and yet to come up, could have exchanged ownership and yet to come back online, could the owner no longer want to run the service or did the folks behind .cc wanted it gone.
Free is great and good, but you cannot survive with it. Especially not when scammers and spammers have nothing better to do than to abuse a fine service.
