It may interest you to know that Namecheap, just a few days ago, banned a few domain names purely based on an ambiguous tweet that got
8 likes, that didn't even ask for those domains to be banned or cite any ToS violation.

Namecheap then reverted that decision when they got ratioed (with no tweets supporting their decision). I've never heard of these domain names and don't keep up with crypto, but it doesn't seem like they did much research before banning them.
I was thinking of switching everything to Namecheap just a week ago, because of a friend's recommendation based on their ease-of-use.
Because of this Twitter story, and the Russian suspension, I'm now glad I didn't. You can't cancel users' service, that they paid for, and give them only a week's notice. I'm not Russian but this volatile style of customer relationships totally destroys any trust I could have in them.
