I think there are so many rumours out there that at this point you can't believe anything that is said because it's most likely made up bullshit.

I've heard people say all the big guys all have the back end deals in place, well guess I am a nobody because I got no deals in place and never heard of anything of the sort.

. XXX is horrible for the businesss, first they have us voluntarily walk into the . XXX bear trap then they pass a law that says all adult material MUST be on . XXX domains across the globe. Then all the server companies block adult material by blocking . XXX

How can anyone support this??? I'm still trying to figure out ONE good reason for it.
Then all the ISPs, computer companies and everyone else riding on the back of porn on the Internet discover they need porn a bit more than they thought they did.

Take porn off the Net and you risk losing a lot more.

Why are some big players in favor of it? It raises the stakes of opening a site, instead of $70 for ten years it's $70 a year. A lot of sites disappear but no surfers.

However with the .XXX it's a lot easier to protect your children from porn. Not 100% but better than Nanny Watch.

I think it's a bad idea and I can afford to buy the domains. Assuming they do not get too expensive.
