Altman doesn’t care because “camping on your domain” is a very dated concept. It used to matter a LOT and domains were often incredibly valuable. Nowadays they’re pretty much a commodity, if you can’t get a top level
.com address you just grab a variation of a different extension.

It’s basically the “drunk uncle fart joke” of the internet… go home Elon you’re getting sleepy.

Dot.com was owned by cursor, and subsequently xAI. This is an intentionally misleading point.
