Purism domain off the whole day 16 October 2025

Maybe it’s time to consider a backup .tld or two in case this happens again?

Already considered:

Puri.sm domain was suspended

Backstory: I highly suggest Tor onion services, which were specifically designed to resist censorship: Or actually following up with the original solution six years ago:

Puri.sm domain was suspended

Thanks, yes those are both good suggestions that we have on our internal tracker for this issue. Our sysadmin is working on standing up alternative domains for critical infrastructure, and we’re also going to look into providing onion services. I wasn’t around six years ago, so I’m not sure what prevented adding those domains then, but we are working on it now.

@sethf

Can we visit the forum and get the site to load using the IP address 128.140.118.223 when the DNS is down?

Sure, for now.
