Devil's advocate for all those anti .xxx

Don't we have the freedom of speech to promote our content on any tld? Shouldn't I be able to promote my videos anywhere on the internet weather its .xxx, .pg or .com?
If a webmaster want to send me qualified traffic from a .xxx domain, should I block it? The money I will get from the conversion is just as good as traffic the from another tld. None of us seemed to block traffic from tube sites that steal our content... are you saying .xxx is worse than that?

Am I against censorship? Absolutely. I believe in freedom of speech and I will join you all to protect it.

But if our fear is that .xxx will allow governing bodies to easily block our sites, don't we already give them relevant information to block us if they wanted to? How many of you already use meta rating tags or post asacp labels? Doesn't that do the same thing? We do that because it is our ethical obligation to prevent access to and warn against age restricted material.

Program owners that are against .xxx - Are you going to register your trademarked names? Absolutely.

The bottom line is that it looks like it's definitely happening. Is it important? Yes. But I feel like everyone is complaining about it instead of focusing our energy on making it what we want it to be. .xxx seems to be the new "industry killer" pushing tube sites to a close #2 on the totem pole. Show me a site that gives away my videos for free on a .xxx and I'll be real upset...

Am a supporter of .xxx? I'm not sure yet...something I will be paying close attention to at the show. But it looks like .xxx is going to happen so we all better do our best to plan for it.
