Brazil opens up com.br domains to ordinary folk

Jeremy June 03, 2008 No comments:

A circular from the Brazil law firm of Di Blasi, Parente, Vaz e Dias e Associados explains that the Administrative Committee of the Internet in Brazil (CGI.br - Comitê Gestor da Internet no Brasil), the committee that has authority to regulate domain name registration, has recently given a decision authorizing not only companies and legal entities to register domains with the suffix com.br but also physical persons. This decision, effective from 1 May 2008, has been welcomed as it allows any person to register a domain.
