They don’t really care. They’re fishing for “whales”. Those who forgot to renew their domain or something but desperately need it back. Businesses, likely.
Comment on Forgot to pay my domain for a year and now I have to spend £2200 ($3000) if I want to get it back

Hahaha. I purposely got a jibberish .xyz domain. If they ever ask for more than the $9.99 a year they can pound sand.

Or people who use it for email and basically have their online identity tied to them.

If you don’t mind using a gibberish .xyz domain, why not an 1.111B class? ([6-9 digits].xyz for $0.99/year)
