If you're interested in reading a pretty extensive analysis as to why zoning laws probably cannot be applied to the Internet, read this transcript of testimony given to Congress during the COPA hearings back in 2000.

If the name of the person testifying (Robert Corn-Revere) sounds familiar to you, that's probably because he has been retained by ICM Registry.

So.... here you have the attorney for ICM, who many people believe are gearing up to lobby Congress to make .XXX mandatory, giving reasons to Congress why any attempt to 'zone' the web in such a fashion most likely violates the First Amendment.

Small world, eh? ;-)
