According to its WHOIS record, YOUPLUG.ORG was created on October 14, 2017 and expires on October 14, 2027. It is roughly 9 years old today. It is registered through OVH, SAS (IANA ID 433) and is active. The registrant country on record is France. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. 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.
In the period from December 26, 2022 to November 3, 2026, 32 fields of the record were modified. The domain moved from OVH to OVH, SAS. Status flags were updated: clientDeleteProhibited and clientTransferProhibited were removed. It was renewed: the expiry date went from October 14, 2023 to October 14, 2027.

Our archive holds 5 historical WHOIS snapshots of YOUPLUG.ORG. The most recent capture is from November 3, 2026. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time.
