NIC.ly et al are now back online

From now on, NIC.ly (.LY registry) and LTT.ly (Libya Telecom & Technology) are back online and accessible anywhere in the world.

Libyan Spider is forced to find a new hosting provider

LS.LY

Today, in an unprecedented way, without any prior warning, the management of SoftLayer, an American hosting company, has suspended the account and the serves of Libyan Spider, the prominent Libya’s registrar.

Erroneously, SoftLayer has based its decision on the sanctions imposed by the U.S. government.

However, the sanctions are directed only at the current Libyan government and neither on any other Libyan citizen nor any legal entities related to the country.

Libyan Spider is a privately owned company that is not affiliated in any manner with the affected government. Libyan Spider is not on the list, never was, and there are no foreseeable anticipation it will ever be.
