On this particular issue: yes

On other issues: not as much

everyone just migrating everything to a new TLD?

That's what I'm suggesting. Make a new gTLD (3 character) for the defunct ccTLD to migrate.

The loss of visual field is probably the greater concern.

I'm not saying that you can't drive with one eye, but it is definitely an impairment and makes the job tougher.

Big issue I'd have is that I really wouldn't want to drive with only one eye. Loss of depth perception and visual field would be a significant concern.

Also:

The threat affects all email platforms providing web logins, albeit Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo and AOL are by far the largest

This is really just a generic article saying "be careful what you click on"

but it’s become such a common mistake. I don’t understand it.

Yeah, like how common loose instead of lose, and rouge instead of rogue is.

I think that's where the divide is, and why my employer pays for everyone to have Microsoft Office but I use a free office suite. I simply don't need the extra capabilities for my own personal use.

Microsoft expects me to pay for Office 365? No, fuck you, I’ve got LibreOffice and your older Office software still works as good. Your word processing program, Word, hasn’t really changed that much since 2007 or even 2003. Hell, maybe not since 1997!

Yeah, it's a word processor. I don't need a newer with more features that I will never use. Some of these might make sense for a business with collaborative projects and such, but your average home user doesn't need it.

Some of them can also seem very gimmicky. ".biz" is particularly bad, as I think of it more alluding to showbiz instead of business. They should have made it ".bus" instead, it would have at least appeared more professional.

Is there a .web? There is already a .site that could be used.

Maybe they could make .io into a 3-character gTLD by adding a character to it. Moving all of the websites (except those actually relevant to the territory) over to a new gTLD in unison seems like it would reduce confusion for the people who use those sites. Knowing that acme.io is now acme.iox (or w/e) would make it easier on everyone.

including a possible merger with rivals like AMD
