          Was I the only person who read. "But members of ICANN's board have argued that in order to maintain neutrality in dealing with domain name assignations, it should create .xxx and allow websites with sexually explicit content to start using the suffix on a voluntary basis."

          So what I gather it will be a voluntary solution.

              Aren't they trying to stick it to us as well? Isn't each domain like 25 bucks or something?

                I was looking over trademarks and noticed quite a few .xxx domains trademarked

                      it has always been voluntary they cant force you to use a domain anymore than .org forces everyone to be a not for profit.
                      I could give two shits wether you read this sig or not.

                        Instablocking is definitely in the future.

                        In a sense, .xxx domains are like those city ordnances that relegated strip bars and sex shops to warehouse districts and other specially designated areas. Less foot traffic.

                          Good to see that Reuters relies on the same total bullshit stats about the adult internet that other media outlets do.

                          Online pornography is a vast industry. Figures collated by Internet Pornography Statistics suggest more than $3,000 is spent on Internet pornography every second, with "sex" the number one search term in the world, accounting for 25 percent of all Internet searches.
                          Riiiiight. $259,200,000.00 is being spent per day on web-based porn. That's a totally reasonable estimate and not at all absurd.

                          Do journalists check facts at all any more? For that matter, do they own calculators?

                                  And the price should be that of a .com price, not the 60 or 70 bucks they want to ass rape people for, for the .xxx.

                                  I hope it doesn't pass, oh and fuck stewart lawley

                                    chatting with Tom Hymes now in icq who is over there now, it ain't over yet...

                                    but ICANN certainly has alot of pressures and fear of lawley's lawsuit that .XXX might just get passed.

                                          The industry is so small now, affiliates gone, affiliate programs closing left and right, x sales gone, who the F needs a .xxx? I'd conjecture it will suffer the same fate as a .info etc.

                                                Nothing will change, .com will still have all the same porn sites on it and .xxx will just be a place for squatters to go hoping for the errant address entry to whitelabel.

                                                    I don't think we need it, but I think it will pass.

                                                    When ICANN relaxed the rules for creating a TLD a few years ago they pretty much opened the door for this to happen.
