It says seized, however, this is the first time I've seen a .lat TLD. I wonder if this is Latin America or Latvia

edit: found it! cool!

> .lat is an Internet generic top-level domain (gTLD) for Latin American communities and users wherever they may reside.

What is interesting is that this does not appear to be a Verisign operated domain. The operator appears to be based entirely outside the US. I wonder how difficult it was to seize the domain.
