Let's say the Moral Majority types buy a controlling interest in one of the major carriers. Suddenly, their equipment no longer transports port6969 (but still advertises a valid route, which fucks things up even worse).

The whole point of not wanting to be on a port, forced into .XXX or having some other scarlett letter painted on our traffic is specifically because it makes it too easy for the righteous morons of the world to stop the traffic from moving, and thereby denying ordinary citizens their rights.

If you want to play TLD or port games, I recommend that all kid safe material is put on .KIDS or port 9999. End of problem.
very good point
