Norway was the first country outside the United States to join ARPANET in 1973. The .no TLD was delegated by Jon Postel in 1983 for research purposes. Responsibility was assigned to UNNINET in 1987, and by 1993, UNINETT AS was established as the operator. In 1996, the service became known as Norid, short for Norwegian service for registration of Internet domain names. In 1999, operations moved to UNINETT FAS AS, and in 2004, Norid became a subsidiary of UNINETT. In 2001, rules were liberalized, leading to rapid growth, with 100,000 domains registered by March 2001 and 200,000 by March 2004. The .co.no controversy arose in 2010 over third-level domain rights and was resolved legally in favor of Elineweb in 2012.
