Namecheap announced today that it will provide sites protesting the current regime in Russia and Belarus with free domains and web hosting.
“Effective immediately, we will begin offering free anonymous hosting and domain name registration to any anti-Putin anti-regime and protest websites for anyone located within Russia and Belarus,” the company said today.
Anti-regime organizations who want to take Namecheap up on their offer are asked to reach out to the registrar’s support for more details.
This decision comes on the heels of Namecheap banning customers registered in Russia, saying that it will no longer provide them with services after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
