The next roadblock would be how to enforce it, how many sites are on the internet, what is the definition of adult?

Let's ignore those for the sake of argument, everyone simply buys a .XXX and forwards their .com's to the .XXX site. It would work because filtering software would still detect you going to a .XXX site. The negative is .XXX costs more than .COM, well if you're not making more than $60 per domain I'd think you're either guilty of buying domains for SEO spam or you're not really earning enough to even pay your hosting account.

.XXX is voluntary and will remain so, it's time we embrace it instead of trying to find arguments against it

EXcuse me in the us they can make a law adult sites can only be on .xxx, it will mean two things one american webmasters will have to comply and foreign webmasters will not be able in enter the country without being arrested if they dont comply. Icann doesnt make the laws in the us the us does
