McDonalds Onboard With IDN Domain Names

McDonalds Onboard With IDN Domain Names

Looks like McDonalds Corp are covering their bases, purchasing several .РФ, Russian IDN Domain Names. (See Below)
I would that they have also purchased or are looking into purchasing their other language equivalents, as well.
When corporations, start to pay attention to IDN Domain Name representation, you know that its just a matter of time for them to become mainstream, and garner more attention, and in turn higher offers/prices.

Recently in response to posts here and on Acro.net, John showed me his proof of revenue from the last year.
