@jaxoncreed Currently, you cannot register on solid any of those listed or blacklisted usernames, however, those who already have registered them prior to the implementation of the black listed usernames should be able to keep them.

I have several of the blacklisted username solid pods but, I obtained those WebID's long before there was any blacklisted implementation so, it is my hope that I will be able to keep them and that they wont be striped from me, or anyone else.

There is no reason provided for this issue.

From my first day on solid, knew in advance that those managing the inrupt.net and solid.community and solid.authing.cn servers would need those usernames like index, portal, inbox, forums, careers, payments, register and a host of others, so I created those WebID's with those usernames to build out a dashboard app using direct links to the very server they were sitting on for the purposes of, among other things, building a monetized platform. So I can assure anyone who is concerned that, there are no blacklisted usernames available that have not already been spoken for by others. However, if you are interested in one of them that I have, maybe a quid pro quo would be in order. In the mean time, I am using them on my new dashboard app here: https://github.com/mikeadams1/solidash
