Where they are registered
For the 108 with a registrar in WHOIS (74% of all). Brand-protection registrars mostly hold defensive registrations made by brands themselves, so a domain there is more likely the brand's own than an imitation.

|---|---|---|---|
| GoDaddy | 25 | 23.2% | Retail |
| Dynadot | 11 | 10.2% | Retail |
