100% of government income of the Tuvalu comes from the leasing of this name. is this remotely true? Oxinabox1 08:06, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
There has been some controversy as to who should be allowed to reserve .tv domain names. A significant percentage of websites with .tv URLs are pornographic or otherwise sexually explicit. citation needed While this has raised significant revenue for the small nation, it has also created conflict. Much of Tuvalu's population is conservative Christian, and some feel that revenue from those sources is immoral.
This sounds suspicious. Could we have references for this paragraph? CloudNine 11:36, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
"For a brief period after its creation, all domain names with the letters "AOL" in sequence, even with completely random characters before and/or after it, were blocked from being registered to prevent misidentification with AOL." does this need to be here?

"Because of VeriSign's involvement, and the fact that VeriSign is based in the United States, it is subject to United States law. The first .tv domains were seized by the U.S. government as part of Operation Fake Sweep prior to Super Bowl XLVI."
Ummm, is this a joke? Torrentfreak is far from a reputable source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.243.244.57 ( talk) 20:16, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
