Violet Blue wrote an excellent article on cc tlds and the human rights policies of the underlying country. She talks about how she had her domain VB.ly taken back.
Summary: A country’s global human rights index affects your domain stability. Learn how bit.ly, goo.gl, t.co, Yahoo! and more score in URL integrity.
A country’s global human rights index, and therefore the freedom it affords to its population, is directly proportional to the freedoms that country will allow you to exercise with your cutesy domain registration.
As we’re at a point in internet history where the land rush of TLD extensions is about to explode with choices, it seems to me that a wise girl ought to take a look at just how stable your vanity domain extension is before making a business plan around it.
