Around 30% traffic is directed to porn. and its a niche which drench into our daily life can't even cancel out. Maybe Google ban all adult adwords because alot of reasons? expense to monitor those adult keywords are over the profit? Maybe too much scammers? Maybe adult is always playing without rules? Who knows, or maybe google wanna IPO another brand for Finance purpose and adult business wont look too promising for a mainstream brand so they need to ban adword porn related stuff? WHo knows. Too many maybes, so I dont worry about that, but one thing I am sure is 30% of internet traffic is Porn, and google own big chunk, if they ban all porn site, eventually those 30% will go to any growing search engines which smart and brave enough to play with the fire. I think Google wont sacrifice a nice chunk of market share over some moral shit. So I do not believe organic adult keywords will be much different, because thats traffic and google is all about traffic. But its different story if a big corporation making money off porno companies, then it sounds not so good.

But if ICM is meeting with Google, then my assumption is mostly censorship. It has been many years since google is fighting censorship, I sue u and u sue me situation because I am afraid my children will land on a porno site for mistake, that makes sense and I too think it should have a filter or firewall or block to not allow minor to access porn, thats why Google comes up with safe search, but its not even effective cuz DUH the kids still can click Safe Search Off and continue their journey when parents away from home. But besides a safe search function what else can Google do? They are smart but they dont know yet. So here comes .XXX, it will be a permanent problem solve if all I MEAN ALL explicit contents websites enforce mainly and only on .XXX extension, then thats very easy to filter on Google side, they can publish a Google PG13 product or Google Safe or Google Parent, wutever shit they come up with, or even intergrate into Chrome, allow parents to totally keep all the .XXX sites not even show up, not even have any ways to see it if u are under 13 on any google, no safe search, non.

Thats what I think is all about. ICM will solve that... Looking at only .com it is really too general through all these years. good .com, bad .com... so I think it will come to an end, Specific content on specific extension makes something more professional and easy to patrol.

Thats only my thought...
