I don't think anybody except the extremely paranoid takes this seriously.

Aha, your interest in this matter is revealed. Well, as a vendor of,
err, "alternative" domain names, you should be in a position to tell us
whether your customers are able to purchase an aus.nu domain unrestricted,
or whether there is pressure for them to get a com.au domain.

By the way, your aus.nu zone serial number is 2998040301 ... parses as
negative, I think you want 1998040301.
