For a domain of a non-profit or non-governmental organization a .org extension is much better than say a .com, or the other way around for a private company. But I'd like to know if general and more or less "official" criteria exist about how to choose the domain extension based on the type of the website (for example, SourceForge has .net but it's one of the very few, and most websites in that field are .com, what criteria might be behind the .net choice) and perhaps also based on possible law-related particularities of some extensions (the latter is less relevant).
I tried to search about this subject but the info I found are from quite obscure sources unknown to me, so I wanted to ask here.

.net .org and .com are considered as top level domain(TLD) and are public TLD so anyone can register easily from any domain register company.
People sometimes use .net when .com are not available for registration. While people use .org when they provide some information or service for free.
