APPLE PURCHASES ICLOUD.NET DOMAIN FORCING SOCIAL NETWORK TO SHUT UP SHOP
Apple has muscled in on the iCloud.Net website, purchasing the domain for an undisclosed sum and leading to the closure of the independent social network which it hosted.
It is doubtless not coincidental that iCloud so happens to be the term used by Apple to name its own cloud software services such as mail, photo library and apps, suggesting that the tech giant is keen to swoop on any associated domain to eliminate market confusion.
Apple has refused to comment on the deal, specifically whether it ordered the shutdown of the social network or if it was merely an unintended casualty of the domain purchase.
