Pure and simple Icann are going to bank with the dot-xxx, and we all know the impact it is going to have on porn!

My question is why the fuck does everyone wait for someone else to fight a battle that will have a major impact on the industry we all work in?

This move makes good business sense to Icann

Not only will they bank in a big way but Icann and the asacp win and look like the good guys for cleaning up the internet.

Money is a very pursuasive element, the green eyed monster has pushed through alot of bad decisions in this world. The adult industry currently generates big bucks for Icann through the various adult registrations of extensions such as the .com, .net, .org etc etc and they will make alot of money out of the proposed $60 registration fee of dot-xxx.

I have worked in a few large organisations in my past and anytime large scale complaints start flowing in the people who are paid to make decisions have to start thinking

You may think your opinion won't make a difference but if enough people started flooding Icann with messages it will soon cascade it's way to the people who need to listen.

If everyone on this board who is against the dot-xxx took 5 minutes of their time to write a quick message to Icann it could make a little difference, heck even if it doesn't what does 5 minutes of your life mean in the scheme of things.

Icann will only bank on the dot-xxx if the adult community supports the extention. If Icann thought that over the years the adult community would rebel and that hardly any dot-xxx would be registered the green eyed monster might again come into play.

If we all sent just a quick message with our personal opinion on why this extention is a bad idea and to clarify that we will not register or adopt the extention if it is introduced you never know it might get them to rethink.

A few messages won't show up on the radar but a shit load will start making the mother fucker bleep

If anyone thinks like me that it can't hurt to try, the form is very simple and can be found below:
