Has HackerNews.org just been acquired by Namecheap?

from the self-post dept.

I used to type hackernews.org every days. A .org shouldn't be too expensive, so what happened?

That domain has been registered since 2001. Are you sure you aren't talking about hackernews.com?

Pretty sure I'm talking about hackernews.org. I've always typed hackernews.org and it was updated today (you can check with WHOIS).

Nice to see that hackernews.com also works. Thank you.
