I’m confused. I thought the point of the “.GOV” Top Level Domain (TLD) was to give citizens some assurance that they were dealing with a credible government entity. Trust, right? So why then is the EFTPS (Electronic Federal Tax Payment System) now changing from “eftps.gov” to “eftps.com”?   I can see that one might want to register the “.com” and 301 re-direct it back to .gov (lots of folks type “.com” out of habit) but to move the site there seems foolish to me…. whatever happend to the original TLD meanings?
Okay, it may have been this way for a little while, but I luckily don’t log in to this site that often.

I was worried that this was a scam when I first saw the redirect. Seems crazy to me.
