actually, Lawley has been pretty much upfront on why he wants .XXX to be approved, to make money on the .XXX domains. what he hasn't been upfront about, is who is behind ICM registry, and where are the "over a thousand" emails from adult webmasters that gave their support as he mentioned in an AVNonline interview.
as a registrar on face value of a TLD, they can do anything they want, much like there are many different TLD.
They had to sell it as "protecting children" in order to tug on emotional strings... if they just did the approach that it's just another TLD, there were no best business practices attached, then there would have been less friction from the online adult community.
They still would have had to deal with the conservative right who feel that .XXX legitimizes porn, and for that main reason, is why .XXX got put to the side.
It's more of who supported .XXX is the hidden agenda...because those that publically supported it were few and had their own agendas of using .XXX to regulate porn.
Fight the wizard of oz!
