ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.” On Wed, 16 Apr 2025 at 5:04 PM, John McCormac via CPWG <cpwg(a)icann.org> wrote: > On 16/04/2025 21:50, Lutz Donnerhacke via CPWG wrote: > > On Wed, Apr 16, 2025 at 10:25:54PM +0200, Lutz Donnerhacke via CPWG > wrote: > >> On Wed, Apr 16, 2025 at 07:03:06PM +0000, mike palage.com via CPWG > wrote: > >>> Is anyone else having trouble accessing the Zoom room via the link > provided? > >> > >> zoom.us is not longer a registered domain name in the us TLD. > > > > There are strong evidence (screenshot of the whois record), > > that somebody updated the registry (godaddy) entry for zoom.us > > to stop serving the domain name (server hold) at 18:25 UTC. > > > > The rest is distributed DNS caching. > > There is no evidence for criminal activities or DDoS ... > > _______________________________________________ > > CPWG mailing list -- cpwg(a)icann.org > > To unsubscribe send an email to cpwg-leave(a)icann.org > > It is back in the .US zone now. > > > Most recent WHOIS check: > > Domain Name: zoom.us > Registry Domain ID: D1813391-US > Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.markmonitor.com > Registrar URL: www.markmonitor.com > Updated Date: 2025-04-16T20:12:49Z > Creation Date: 2002-04-24T15:03:39Z > Registry Expiry Date: 2027-04-23T23:59:59Z > Registrar: MarkMonitor, Inc. > Registrar IANA ID: 292 > Registrar Abuse Contact Email: registry.admin(a)markmonitor.com > Registrar Abuse Contact Phone: +1.2083895740 > Domain Status: clientTransferProhibited > https://icann.org/epp#clientTransferProhibited > Domain Status: clientDeleteProhibited > https://icann.org/epp#clientDeleteProhibited > Domain Status: clientUpdateProhi > > Previous WHOIS check: > > Domain Name: zoom.us > Registry Domain ID: D1813391-US > Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.markmonitor.com > Registrar URL: www.markmonitor.com > Updated Date: 2025-04-16T18:25:44Z > Creation Date: 2002-04-24T15:03:39Z > Registry Expiry Date: 2027-04-23T23:59:59Z > Registrar: MarkMonitor, Inc. > Registrar IANA ID: 292 > Registrar Abuse Contact Email: registry.admin(a)markmonitor.com > Registrar Abuse Contact Phone: +1.2083895740 > Domain Status: clientTransferProhibited > https://icann.org/epp#clientTransferProhibited > Domain Status: clientDeleteProhibited > https://icann.org/epp#clientDeleteProhibited > Domain Status: serverHold https://icann.org/epp#serverHold > Domain Status: clientUpdateProhibited > https://icann.org/epp#clientUpdateProhibited > Registry Registrant ID: C4F4692A1DCD04CC0B9B57813CA0C74CD-NSR > > Regards...jmcc > -- > ********************************************************** > John McCormac * e-mail: jmcc(a)hosterstats.com > MC2 * web: http://www.hosterstats.com/ > 22 Viewmount * Domain Registrations Statistics > Waterford * Domnomics - the business of domain names > Ireland * https://amzn.to/2OPtEIO > IE * Skype: hosterstats.com > ********************************************************** > > > -- > This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. > www.avast.com > _______________________________________________ > CPWG mailing list -- cpwg(a)icann.org > To unsubscribe send an email to cpwg-leave(a)icann.org > > _______________________________________________ > By submitting your personal data, you consent to the processing of your > personal data for purposes of subscribing to this mailing list accordance > with the ICANN Privacy Policy (https://www.icann.org/privacy/policy) and > the website Terms of Service (https://www.icann.org/privacy/tos) You can > visit the Mailman link above to change your membership status or > configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery or > disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on. >

It can serve as an enforcement point for enterprise security policy and an indicator of potential malicious activity on a network. A disruption or attack against the DNS can impact an entire organization NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-81r3 (Revision 3), *Secure Domain Name System (DNS) Deployment Guide* <https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fcsrc.nist.gov%2Fpubs%2Fsp%2…>, describes the different roles of DNS and gives recommendations for protecting the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of DNS services, including: 1. The role DNS plays in supporting a zero trust architecture, such as serving as both a policy enforcement point (PEP) and a source for information when evaluating access requests 2. The role of hosting DNS information (authoritative DNS), including guidance on protecting the integrity and authenticity of DNS information using DNSSEC 3.

TheVerge : Microsoft is shutting down Skype in favor of Teams
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh April 10, 2025

April 10, 2025

So, do we switch to Teams (and will it work for the At-Large Community?) Or another group chat solution ? Dev Anand Teelucksingh "It’s the end of an era. Microsoft is shutting down Skype in May and replacing it with the free version of Microsoft Teams for consumers. Existing Skype users will be able to log in to the Microsoft Teams app and have their message history, group chats, and contacts all automatically available without having to create another account, or they can choose to export their data instead. Microsoft is also phasing out support for calling domestic or international numbers." https://www.theverge.com/news/621353/microsoft-skype-shutting-down-retireme…

Hi All I use Discord for two groups I belong too and we have good sub-group threads and we conduct Live Chats as well. Lots of experience with Loomio and Slack . Its not about the technology but rather about people using the tool for the purpose it's set out for. I have not been a fan of Skype with the lack of threads and other reasons.
