    TORONTO - ICM Registry has pursued the .xxx sponsored Top-Level Domain (sTLD) since 2000. The company?s first application to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) was not approved, and ICM subsequently began a more aggressive campaign in 2003.

              Is this solely a for-profit venture?

              - Clearly, there?s no hiding that.
              hm and i thought this is about protecting kids

                      trademark protection is automatic on first use, you do not have to register a trademark a copyright or a service mark to have protection

                      you DO have to register it in order to get punitive damages

                      ICMRegistry is but I abunch of whores...I suggest joining the fight to have the .XXX charter revoked...it can still be done....

                              "I think the executive director is going to be a Washington, D.C., lobbyist type. It probably won?t be somebody from the adult industry."

                              Gee.. what will you be lobbying for - to make it mandatory for all US webmasters to go to .XXX so they can collect $60/yr every year.

                                  Some possibly socially conservative lobbyist from DC might eventually be in charge of the access to every adult website on the internet?

                                  Why wouldn't free speech supporters want that?

                                      Post a link on GFY and maybe some people will donate.

                                                  maybe its me but I dont see room for alot of industry people there, when this is supposed to be a group with the industries interests at heart. I think they have no idea of what a mess this going to be.
