Use in spam[edit]
I think it's notable to talk about the domain's use by spammers and that Tutanota have blocked the entire domain on their service.

Why a photo of the CEO?[edit]
Any editors know why there is a photo of the .CLUB CEO on this page? I haven't seen any CEO photos on the pages of other TLDs found on the List_of_Internet_top-level_domains. It seems to me to be more promotional. I would suggest removing it to be in line with other TLD pages. Thoughts? - Dyork (talk) 02:58, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
