American Neo Nazi Website Refused Registry in Albania

Tirana, Sept 04 (Tirana Echo) – American Neo-Nazi racist website ‘Daily Stormer’ has been blocked hours after confirming it had registered its site with an Albanian domain registrar.

According to ZDNet, the news was confirmed by Host.al, the responsible domain registrar for top Albanian .al domains, which blocked the Daily Stromer domain hours after email complains swamped their HQ.

But Host.al, an Albanian domain registrar, confirmed to tech site ZDNet that the Daily Stormer had been “blocked” just hours later after the registrar received complaints.

Anonymous Albania praised the decision of Host.al in a tweet reaction.

“Thanks to @HostDotal for preventing #DailyStormer dailysormer.al to spread racism & hate Cc @slpng_giants By @AnonOpsAL #Opdomesticterrorism” – said Annonymous Albania.

“Domains that incite racism, hatred or crime are not allowed in the .al zone,” a Host.al spokesman told ZDNet. The spokesman also added that Albania “has always taken a stand against racism.”

“During [World War II], Albania was a safe haven for many Jewish refugees from other countries,” said the spokesman.

Named after a newspaper of Nazi Germany, Der Stürmer, the Daily Stormer is “dedicated to spreading anti-Semitism, neo-Nazism and white nationalism, primarily through guttural hyperbole and epithet-laden stories about topics like alleged Jewish world control and black-on-white crime,” according to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and as reported by Newsweek.
