I Alerted the Dept of Commerce, and ICANN GAC/Other Individuals of my ICANN Posting

FWIW, In case any of you want to use the below email addresses to forward copies of YOUR letters urging ICANN disapproval of .xxx, some pertinent email addresses are shown below in my forwarding/comments to the Secretary of Commerce (Mr. GUTIERREZ); my forwarding/comments to specific ICANN officials and many of the ICANN GAC (Governments Advisory Council) officials; and, my recent posting to the ICANN public comments page. Although my stage name is "Dave Cummings", for these communications, I used my real/legal name of David Conners in the below:

Subject: Fw: .xxx, IMO, Will Involve ICANN (not Just ICM/Iffor) in Many and Constant Court Cases, Possible Criminal Conspiracy Trials, and NOT Protect Children Like .kids Might!


Dear Mr Secretary:

Please personally get involved and lend the full power of the U.S. Department of Commerce to assist the "CC' addressees in stopping the .xxx domain approval which is presently under consideration at ICANN. IMO, there are some indications of "secret" deals being made by the .xxx petitioner ICM with others in exchange for their support, or their silence, (something that might involve courts and possibly law enforcement for years?) while this gets jammed down the throats of Red-Blooded All-Americans. The below letter lays it out for you, and I'm contactable if I can assist you. Please get .xxx permanently denied, and please push .kids for an early approval so that children REALLY CAN be better protected.

Sincerely,

David Conners

The Subject line for the below letter is what I just sent to the ICANN Public Comment Forum ([email protected]) concerning the pending .xxx TLD. I respectfully request that ALL of you esteemed addressees get actively involved in this pending .xxx matter and insure that the ongoing ICM matter does NOT get ram-rodded through and taint the entire ICANN organization's reputation.

Sincerely,

David Conners

Besides the very important Subject Line which IMO is what will happen if .xxx is approved, the below letter encompasses my opinions and comments (and, the major adult webmaster boards certainly show significant negativism against .xxx; and, a lot of concern about possible deals that might involve conspiracies and other matters that could land ICANN/ICM/IFFOR/"INSIDERS"/etc in time-consuming court actions). Please read this letter, then re-read it, and then give it a lot of thought. Don't give ICANN a huge and continuing black eye or irreparable loss of reputation. Protect my four grandchildren by putting .kids on a fast tract for approval; and, permanently reject the ICM matter and .xxx.

Here's the letter (Which as of this moment, ICM has Not Responded to):

In my First Amendment protected free speech personal opinion, I herewith think/feel that ICM should immediately and permanently:

1. Withdraw their ongoing .xxx submission to ICANN; instead, show a non-profit motive and a helpful concern for children by instead requesting that ICANN quickly approve .kids.

2. Publicly publish on this and other boards, with a copy to ICANN (and Department of Justice?), the names and organizations of any person(s) or entity which they have entered into either a formal or informal or verbal deal/arrangement/understanding/trade/etc concerning .xxx, and reveal the specific and detailed quid pro quid and financial and other aspects of the matter with each person/entity (If ICM agrees to immediately and without reservation do Item 1 above, this paragraph might be mute?).

3. Provide a notarized letter to the Free Speech Coalition, with emailed and written copies to ICANN as well as this and other similar boards, that if .xxx is approved, ICM and it's personnel/partners/associates/"deal" individuals and entities/etc, whether already publicly disclosed or "secret", as individuals as well as organizations and corporate structures, will guarantee, backed by a voluntary and totally unrestricted unlocking of the corporate lawsuit veil and an agreement that the personal assets of all individuals involved are volunteered and available in addition to corporate assets for any future civil lawsuit findings, and herewith agrees that:

a. All present "adult" .com domains and/or .com sites will be grand-fathered indefinitely and have sole and continuing extended total rights, to and from ICM and other/future registries, to register their same .com domain name/site as a .xxx at the pricing discussed in the below paragraph c.

b. Like the free spirit of American and business competition, other registries may also offer .xxx registrations at or below the same price that they now presently offer .com registrations.

c. Since and like present .com adult sites/domains are already "policed" by government authorities, ICM agrees to drop it's proposed oversight, monitoring of content, censorship, and other aspects now being used to justify registration prices for .xxx that exceed .com prices presently offered by other registries. ICM will pledge not to charge more than $10 per .xxx registration.

d. If any future legislation at any level of government in any country is passed that restricts .xxx in any way that .com is not presently affected, or if any ISP/3d Party Billing/etc non-government element imposes rules/regulations/restrictions/etc which in any way limit revenue or operations of .xxx domains/sites, ICM and it's "secret" associates as mentioned in Paragraph 2 above, will immediately become monetarily responsible to cover all revenue losses and to refund .xxx registration fees, and to financially cover a buy-back of the former .com domain to replace the .xxx domain.

In my personal opinion, if ICM immediately does all of the above, people considering contact with their Senators and Representatives, the Department of Justice, the Department of Commerce, and other law enforcement and government agencies to seek a federal Court TRO against the ICANN decision while insisting upon the conduct of a full and complete Governmental investigation to insure that no criminal/conspiratorial/RICO/IRS/etc regulations or laws have been assailed by ICM or it's "secret" associates, should probably consider backing off; the same for non-U.S. folks affected adversely by .xxx if it is approved.

ICM, are you willing to quickly do the above?
