Speaking of zoning ... webhosting companies could be effected ... ok, these examples are far-fetched, but with politicians, one never knows LOL!

* Being forbidden from hosting .XXX domains on the same IP as non-adult sites.

* Being required to host .XXX sites in a separate IP range surrounded by empty "buffer" IPs.

* Being forbidden using a .XXX domain name that exactly corresponds to an active .COM, .NET, .ORG domain belonging to someone else.

* .XXX registry being required maintain access lists, and to pass those lists along to ISPs, of all .XXX domains and what locations each one may be accessed from/blocked from.

* Require approval by the local zoning board for registrants that reside in the U.S. in communities with formal zoning laws.

* .XXX registration would not be instant - but instead require extensive background check to be sure one has paid child support, is not a child preditator, not a felon, etc.

* .XXX Registry be required to inspect every .XXX site for compliance on a continual basis.

Sure one can come up with more ... .XXX opens a can of worms much bigger than most initially realized - glad to see more and more folks, especially politicians, coming to their senses...

.XXX is a bad idea, period!
