[GreenKeys] Concern Regarding rtty

[E.]

I don’t think I'd be too concerned about it.  If you own the domain, they can’t force you to sell it (if things still work as how they used to)… but do keep up on renewals.  I have the feeling that this "registered keyword" thing has to do with the Chinese internet (behind the great firewall — how the search engines work there) and nothing to do with the outside, free internet.

Just my two cents.

I replied no, the third-party advised this Chinese company not to use RTTY, but you can clearly see that the Chinese company is moving forward with it.
