DOMAIN EXTENSION GUIDE
.human Domain Names
Application disclosedThe.human extension points to identity, humanity and people-first storytelling. Publicly announced information identifies Link Freedom Group as the applicant associated with.human. The string sits within ICANN’s 2026 new gTLD round disclosure context, so it should be treated as a proposed extension rather than a live delegated domain unless and until delegation is recorded in the root zone.
