Idiot .Amsterdam politico wants to spend fortune on gTLD.

Some idiots think that the city of Amsterdam should do anything to set up a .amsterdam global top level domain to market the city (so you could have www.stupid.amsterdam as a web address).

'Gemeente moet topleveldomein .amsterdam claimen' | Webwereld.

That, hoewever, costs $185,000 New gTLD Applicant guidebook, ch. 1.5 as well as having to set up a domain registry (which is difficult as well as involved).

NL .gov opens anonymous portal to tell on Midden and Eastern Europeans

Basically the PVV, backed by Mark Rutte, the Dutch prime minister, have a few sensationalist headlines from a religious magazine that no-one knows (Reformatiorich Dagblad) or reads and a few from a more serious newspaper (AD) that aren’t so sensationalist, and on the basis of this they’ve decided to open up a Hitlerite plan to turn citizens into anonymous spies and snitches on a very directed group of people – middle and eastern Europeans.

Fortunatley everyone on the internet seems to be making fun of the plan. Unfortunately, NL is populated with plenty of people who will take it seriously.
