I was hoping to find a statement from the aggressor, but it seems to be too early.

I hope this teaches them the valuable lesson of always having domains with more than one registrar.

Or, hopefully, we migrate to a system more advanced than DNS registrars where your "name" can be taken down by an unrelated third party. The current system sucks and the fact that even the Fediverse relies on it (accounts are tied to domains, making full account migration impossible) makes even the remains of my pre-graduate CS student brain rumble.

The current DNS implementation works well but there should maybe be some ICANN rules that restrict regristars more.

I can't really think of a way to make it better without making it less secure.

Maybe he’s talking about some sort of peer to peer thing
