Yes agreed, I didn't think about email aspect

DNS exists for more than just http and email too. I reckon you should learn more about how the technology works before telling other people how to run their lives and dispose of their private property. Or maybe... Just don't do those things at all.

I'm the CTO for a top 100 alexa site. I know how DNS works lol. I just didn't see that part of the site that explained that the content was hidden.

I'm sorry to hear that, I hope they have better luck hiring in the future.

Why should someone have to serve http explaining to you what they're using their domain for? Why can't someone just have a domain for email and SSH and be left the fuck alone?

It's my own company, nice try though. I see you've resorted to being an aggressive little prick though just because someone disagrees with you.

While the other person was way to negative in their response, I can definitely see their point. How does being a CTO automatically confer knowledge of how DNS works, especially in very technical detail? Seems to me a clear case of an appeal to authority argument, which is usually (and probably also in this case) a logical fallacy.
