are you sure?
Yes I am, atleast in that part that rapidshare.com is not from germany but rapidshare.de is.
Germany = Deutschland in German thus .de
And it's NOT a simple .de .com language issue, these are totally separated companies with separated offices, bosses etc.
trademark91 Wrote:google.com Wrote:Any web site plus de means that it is Deutsch or German. So if you typed in google.de you would get the German google or if you put in google.it you would get the Italian google. It means that the person who created the page is writing it for that language or country. Hope this helps!
Do note that it's quite easy to register TLDs without actually even being there. .de is actually free for anyone to register regardless of them being in Germany or not (about US$18/year from
NameCheap).
But doesn't mean RS isn't two entities, though IDK...

Die Schweiz = Switzerland
