That's just them trying to shake down mainstream companies too.

A trademark protects you against WHAT you trademark it for. So the .xxx guys are thinking that they can "protect" mainstream companies that have no affiliation to porn from having porn guys take their domain and start porn sites with a .xxx extension.

Now why in the hell anybody would seriously want to waste time and money opening up something like "homedepot.xxx" or "sony.xxx" is beyond me. lol

Of course all of us in porn who already have our trademarks for our sites and have them trademarked to pertain to porn...don't have to worry at all. You are already protected from some squatter buying your .xxx name and trying to start a porn site on it.

Couple of emails will take care of that. Just like any other extension.
