Yeah I think they'd gladly see all porn on a seperate domain but the problem *for them* with .xxx is that it's described as voluntary.

Obviously we fear that it could be made mandatory... while they fear that even if they wanted to make it mandatory, perhaps they wouldn't succedd... and by making it voluntary they are only legitimizing porn

such a complex and kinda ironic situation, heh
