Radical-safest TLDs in 2014

I'd say national TLD's are to be avoided, if they're known to be
anti-whateveritisyou'redoing. ".com" is kinda difficult given the US just
claims it.

Other than that I don't think anyone cares. The idea is that you're easy to
find, just focus on that. Robustness... Onion and bit are resilient, more
so than a bare IP address, so that's worth it /if you're expecting domain
name troubles/.

.io is hip right now, but it's like 35usd instead of ~10usd, and it feels
icky-hip not cool-hip.

Can't wait till we get 1-N domain names; where a domain name is like a tag
and up/downvotes and a web-of-trust regulate ordering. Democratic,
distributed, semi-/inconsistent in a good way. If you pin an identity, use
a certificate! Way better to use identities that way anyway. Have
governments certify that a certain entity (cryptographic entity) is the
natural or legal person it claims to be, allowing any government to do
that. Totally different ecosystem though. That's life :/
