Oh, that is why I wasn't able to renew some domains I have used for 10+ years. I'm not even able to upgrade to paid domain.

I don't think it will help reducing malware/scams/phishing. But it will hurt students and young people that want to start in en development and aren't able to pay for a domain.

I applied for a domain at nic.eu.org in 2023 and I have never gotten a response

For students, a few of the GitHub Education Student Pack partners offer free domains for a year.
