IEDR requires a "real and substantive connection to Ireland" although I'd guess Microsoft could get any domain they want. I'm no fan of the IEDR but it's a shame to Microsoft polluting the domain space.


According to the Whois info it is registered to ZeptoLab UK Limited as a Registered Trademark. Not much of a link to Ireland there!


Wait are you being sarcastic?

UK = Great Britain + Northern Ireland

Great Britain = England + Scotland + Wales

So technically if they're registered in the UK they're a part of Ireland I suppose.
