It is extremely unusual for any major operator to participate in such threads at all. And when another piece of the ceiling does fall down, there are never any sanctions against those who made it happen, nor against those who did nothing to prevent it.
As to .xxx, I suspect that most of those who have given it more than a passing thought, see it as another opportunity to make money. That most will never make a dime, but we will all end up spending more, just makes the general lack of reaction all the more pathetic.

jayeff...well said.....
I stood right there in Florida at Internext last year, just after the .XXX panel, having the main partner in the .XXX, tell me " they banked on the fact our industry would not do a thing" ....they might be right, its still not a done deal, and the fact that ICANN put the brakes on it, gives us some hope, and time.
Sad and very pathetic........................ like you said most would rather not be bothered until that day comes when they are shit out of luck on there domains and they cant make the car or house payment.
So i say to the lazy ass "know it all" webmaster, there are so many reasons to just send an email and vote, all the very same reasons they give us to vote in any election.
Vote = email to ICANN -- be part of something, stand up for your biz
No Vote = bend over sheep and no lube for you....
