The proposed law, even if passed, which itself is unlikely, would be difficult to enforce for one, and more fundamentally, how does one definite what is obscene; applying local community standards to an internet-based resource is likely unconstitutional.

.XXX and .KIDS, while seemingly totally opposite in nature, are very much similar in the thorny issues involved ... it's very unlikely either TLD will ever become reality - and for similar reasons, any such Utah law is likely to face a similar fate in the end; likely the politicians know that too, but are simply pandering as usual, making it appear they're doing something when in reality it's little more than window-dressing and business as usual.

p.s. I'm curious if the number of on-line adult memberships from Utah residents is proportionally higher than other states? -what are the top niches folks there go for? ... but I digress.
