The channels on libera are registered
The channels on freenode where registered previously 

One question that i think we should ask is what "buisness model"
these 2 have.
One seems to be a simple volunteer based "not for profit" the other
is said to be bought by some rich person. Does anyone know what the
buisness model behind that is ?
Normally when someone buys / invests in something he expects something
more valuable in return.
Is this some sort of "free" funded by advertisement model or if not then
how does it work? does anyone know ?

Thanks
