This would be creepy.
The birth domain name will be placed on an RFID tag injected into all
newborns, until humans can be genetically modified to have domain names built
into our DNA. Would that mean that I wouldn't be allowed to have my *.es *.ca
and *.co.uk addresses or domains? Bad enough having spy cameras everywhere.
Double creepy. Triple creepy.
Apparently, some parents out there are picking baby names based on
whether that domain name is available:
