Something’s off.A published article reports that, after “SI” began being used as shorthand for “Super Intelligence,” registrations of Slovenia’s .si country-code domains surged. It cites Netcraft counts of 4,794 new registrations in 24 hours on 23 September 2026 and 13,603 on 1 October, with more than half of the .si names seen at one registrar listed for resale.
The oddity is that the two letters may be bought as an AI-style label, while .si remains Slovenia’s country-code ending. The article says Google does not list .si among country codes it treats as generic, so a global site using the newly fashionable ending could send a Slovenia-focused location signal that its buyer never intended. It also says no rise in .si phishing had been seen as of 1 October.
