Sure, but there's no .rb ccTLD, and since 4-, 5-, and 6- letter gTLDs exist, we could certainly have Kickstarter campaigns for .php, .html, .css, .perl, etc.

I guess .NET hackers are screwed though.

They're probably less screwed, cause they can register their domain today, provided it's still available.
