What does “.io” mean that is attached to the end of some video games titles and website titles?

Chaghos islands, better known as British Indian Ocean Territory have good fortune of having their own internet top level domain, .io for Indian Ocean. There is no permanent population because Brits forcibly depopulated the islands back in 60ies and 70ies. So basically the tld is unused for it’s intended purpose.
I/O stands for input/output and is a very generic technical term suitable for many uses, so .io has been marketed as a generic tld that stands out from typical .com and .org and that has been popular.
