Initial registration is $185K, and there is a fair amount of back and forth documentation requirements with ICANN, and if someone else requests the same TLD, there will be a bidding as well.

Not really profane, but there’s https://get.sucks

I love that the first selling point is

This one is an extortion racket.

microsoft.sucks, apple.sucks, and google.sucks are registered by their respective companies as well.

It absolutely is. And .sucks domains are much more expensive than most other TLDs.

I was under the impression that .sucks domains cost about $10 for an individual but thousands for a corporation (as an anti-corporate endeavour). I can't find anything on this though, so perhaps I imagined it.

according to https://get.sucks/fees .sucks domains have an MSRP of $250 for standard domains and $2500 for "premium" domains. I can't see a list, but my guess is the "premium" domains are the names of larger corporations and wealthy individuals that the registry thinks they can extort more money from.

Also .fail.
