The team has decided to cut the project altogether and move it to @wordit which will be only maintained by @pressenter, as it is his coding language.
Thanks to all.

The developers of NPG are taking a break. Be back soon!
NPG may evolve into something else, as jeffalo is taking over.
Jeffalo's email:
“You don't need to 'protect' usernames, I try to make sure that all parody accounts are properly labeled, and if you see one that isn't, please report a post by the user.
Moreover, if for whatever reason a company wants their name, I could free up the name properly for them as well.”
We decided to do extra today and ended up protecting 6 accounts!
The accounts are the following:
@huawei @cocacola @costco @microsoftofficial @paypal @samsung
Hello, we are the Name Protection Group.
You may see some accounts that say “This name has been taken by the @nameprotectiongroup (NPG) because it could be vulnerable to people who are impersonating the person.“
We protect these accounts because we are tired of seeing people like @pewdiepie (which is not owned by the real pewdiepie.) impersonating popular people and organisations.
Most of those accounts will be popular names, and if you are a person with this name and want an NPG-Protected account to be unlocked for your use on wasteof.money, please contact us at [email protected] and be ready to provide proof that you are who you say you are.
Signed, The NPG.
