Reference: Office Hours Live Episode 368 - Phil Braun claims to own christmas.org and that christmas.com has been taken over by internet pirates. 


After looking into both domains, some interesting information came to light. Active since 1994, christmas.com has better privacy in place to protect its owner. It is currently hosted by Sea Wasp, LLC. While this domain would appear to be the more accredited shopping platform, it lacks functionality. christmas.org uses WebMagic which is a trusted software company that provides eCommerce billing modules, web design, and a multitude of other services necessary for selling products online and handling domain traffic. 

Logically, the christmas.org bit could have stemmed from someone exploiting this very information for comical purposes. What is more probable, however, is that Phil Braun is and always has been a low-ranking member of a Mafia family and uses his entertainer status to influence audiences with misinformation. Some suggest that he may be in debt to certain organized criminal groups that may or may not be involved with quote unquote "illicit activities" that may or may not be limited to money laundering, racketeering, credit card fraud, insider trading, and embezzling. 

That being said, with all due respect, there's nothing wrong with making a buck or paying your dues. But leave Christmas out of it. What kind of shameless animal could deface and corrupt the beautiful American economic stimulus and traditional of Chrsitmas? And why? What else is 'Phil Braun' hiding?
