On an unfortunate note, in 2011 the Anti-Phishing Working Group
(www.antiphishing.org) claimed that the .tk domain was favored by
spammers and scammers. The group rated the .tk domain as one of
the most widely used in the world for sheltering criminal Web sites. In
response, in 2012, Freedom Registry expanded its anti-abuse strategy
by enabling trusted partners to electronically report any active
Web sites that are used in spam, phishing, or other abuse. Freedom
Registry allows its partners, such as Facebook, Kaspersky Labs,
and Twitter, to connect their anti-abuse systems with Freedom Registry’s
domain name database. When Freedom Registry receives an
electronic report of abuse, it immediately blocks the Web site.
