Running their DNS on a 2-bit registrar is exactly the kind of thing I have come to expect from Zoho. I am forced to use this company for a handful of services at my company. If I started to tell you the idiocy I've had to put up with from these guys, I'd never stop ranting. I'll save it for DevRant.

The domain was registered over 22 years ago, and it kept moving through registrars who were acquired. We do have a solid record of reliable services, and have kept growing in spite of never taking a dime in outside capital.

To me this is even worse than choosing a bad registrar once by mistake. You keep choosing companies who can't stay in business and let your domain float around like it didn't matter. The second or third buy-out of your name registration should have been an alert to switch to a top tier company for stability. On the internet, your domain name is literally the crux of your services.

Thank you for sharing your story. It should serve as a warning to others who may need to audit their infrastructure.
