Namecheap recently made a statement that they are restricting their services to Russian entities and asked them to migrate to another provider. In addition to that, Russian domains will become 403 forbidden domains starting from March 6th.

Namecheap posted a tweet that, “Effective immediately, we will begin offering free anonymous hosting and domain name registration to any anti-Putin anti-regime and protest websites for anyone located within Russia and Belarus. Please contact our support for details.”

The domain registrar has made a decision to give free hostings to anti-regime organizations. Entities that want to use its services are requested to contact them for support. Currently, the assistance is provided via an online ticketing system. They are working on providing Live support.
