I was interested in their knob1, and, if you go to their website today it still says pre-order with shipping in August 2025 (stuck in the past), at this point I accepted it's vaporware [1]

I'm guessing they didn't run "knob" past anyone from the UK.
Edit: as much as it pains me, this is hacker news, so, knob means cock in the UK.
It also, and I would say more commonly, means a round thing that can be turned. I've never heard of anyone avoiding the term.
I doubt anyone from the UK would call their product or company "knob" these days.
Their website is blocked by my ISP as being unsafe.
Many ISPs block .cc domains. Especially when .co.cc was a free domain name thing and tons of malware would use it.
