How did they "support .xxx" and so what if they did? Do they own part of it or something and spin news or something covering it? Thats the only think I could thing of that would be worth bitching about. Other than that whats the deal?
Typical GFY bitches? Or is it something more?

Does anyone else kind of find it odd that only 22% of the people who replied to the xbiz poll said they were against .XXX and the other 78% said they either support it or didn't care either way???
Here is the link to the XBiz poll:
http://www.xbiz.com/polls/poll.php?id=119287 interesting, it's a blank page now.
By comparison, a poll run on GFY during the same time:
https://gfy.com/fucking-around-and-business-discussion/714663-icann-approved-xxx-vote.html (88% against!)
Lawley has been an active poster on the XBIZ forums.
Lawley is givin plenty of lip service within the XBIZ pages.
XBIZ.net is one of the premium and most well-established adult-industry, discussion boards. It is a members-only board, and membership is restricted adult -industry professionals. Stuart Lawley must agree with that assertion because xbiz.net is the only network he joined and the only adult board on which he decided to contribute.

The nature of the public comment period provoked press interest, particularly in the technology press.
Articles regarding the comment period appeared in the following outlets (in no particular order): the BBC, The Register, Domain Name Wire, DomainIncite, The UWM Post, Tech.Blorge, WorldNetDaily, CircleID, PC Magazine, PC World, ZDNet, GeekSugar, Silicon Republic, V3.co.uk, The Domains, Xbiz, among others.
In general, the articles that expressed an opinion came down in favour of "option 1" and the approval of the dot-xxx application. This opinion was also largely reflected in comments to the articles from readers and in online polls.

Lastly and most importantly I do not recall XBIZ comming out and denying that they support .XXX. You would think they would make a release about where they stand but have yet to do.
I also find it kind of funny that all .XXX press releases come out of XBIZ first.
YOu have been informed bro!
