what if it was on a more personal level like think of the person you love most and if the domain was "god-hates-insert-name.com" ,
lets say it was your 80 year old christian grandmothers name  |
While I might be offended by it, I would not disallow it. I understand there are sometimes consequences for peoples actions. If you buy babymolesters.com and people hate you for running a site with that name, you have to deal with it. If you scream in a crowded theater you have to deal with the consequences of doing so. I could see where you might not allow domains that are about illegal activities. obviously molesting a baby is illegal so you might disallow that on the grounds that it is an illegal activity, but even then I would be hesitant because where do you draw the line? What if I want shootingherion.com and I make it an anti-drug site?
There are always extremes with freedom of speech. I personally figure if the extreme things are allowed, those of us who rarely venture out to that part of the world will always be safe.
