In June 2012, Ryan Singel of Wired predicted no one would ever set up the .wtf domain,[3] but later that month an application for the domain was submitted to ICANN,[5] and although in August 2012 the Saudi Arabian government objected to .wtf and 30 other newly proposed top-level domains such as .gay, .bible and .islam,[5][6] ICANN approved .wtf on 23 April 2014.[7] Google indexed about 4,350,000 webpages with the .wtf domain.
