stopthegrowl.org

According to its WHOIS record, STOPTHEGROWL.ORG was created on November 15, 2000 and expires on November 15, 2019. That makes the domain about 25 years old. It is registered through CSC Corporate Domains Inc. (IANA ID 299) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in United States. DNS is served by ns1.p12.dynect.net, ns2.p12.dynect.net, ns3.p12.dynect.net and ns4.p12.dynect.net. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.

Whois Data Center has 5 historical WHOIS snapshots for STOPTHEGROWL.ORG. The most recent capture is from December 10, 2017. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale.
