AI overview
".org" is a web address ending that was created in 1985 as a general-purpose domain for organizations that didn't fit into other categories, and today it's commonly used by nonprofits, open-source projects, and community groups, though anyone can register one. The domain has been managed by the Public Interest Registry since 2003 and remains one of the most widely recognized web address types on the internet.
