The .xxx TLD lays the framework for any government to ban non-.xxx sites from operating from within their country. Besides, if ICANN is pressured into banning porn from .com and .net, then all countries will be affected by this. Its not just the US government that will be the enemy once the .xxx TLD is established.

Google '2257 compliance' now and see what info you can find. Then extrapolate to 20x with all mom-n-pop 'secondary producers' having to disclose this info, and you will see where this goes.

There are still plenty of girls willing to do it anyway, either because they need the money, because they are naive about the implications of 2257, or because they simply don't care.
While 2257 is bad, especially to me as a secondary producer, it won't be as long lasting, in my opinion. 2257 seems to be much easier to repeal than does a move forcing all porn sites into the .xxx ghetto that is being established right now.
