- A 'public suffix' allows Internet users to directly register names under it (e.g., com, co.uk, pvt.k12.ma.us).
- The Public Suffix List is maintained as a community resource, originally created for browser manufacturers.
- Browsers use the list for functions like cookie management and optimal site data display.
- Users are encouraged to share their use cases to help assess the impact of changes via the psl-discuss mailing list.
- Internet registries should keep their sections updated to prevent issues like cookie-setting problems for their customers.
