Especially in tech, if an intended purpose isn’t actually enforced then that’s as good as having no intended purpose at all.

Though the .af domain is related to the country of Afghanistan, ‘af’ is also a commonly used abbreviation in the English language, hence its use in non-Afghan sites.

There’s something funny about everyone assuming the domain were taken down for religions regions, and the taliban having to clarify that they don’t give a shit and just want money.

Tbf it does become an ideological dispute if the customers are like “we’d be perfectly willing to pay if the money wasn’t going to the Taliban”
