Both .sex and .xxx would be the worst thing to happen to this industry. They would move us off to an easily blocked out ghetto of porn. Regional ISPs (like those in Utah) could be forced by STATE law to block out sites out, heck even a local city our county ordinance could do that (community standards would be back to get us all). Browsers could be built and distributed by the majors that would block those extensions UNLESS you pay a fee or otherwise specifically authorize adult material - possibly by signing a waiver or otherwise having to make some big act to get in.
No, you don't want to get moved into a small box that can easily be controlled.
Anyway, anything like that would be a certain 1st amendment issue, and I think no court in the land would allow the government to restrict free speech in that manner.
