I think that's a bunch of bullshit.

We all sent in our comments to the DOJ regarding the 2257 regulations too, remember how much good that did us? (For those of you who weren't keeping score at home, it did us ZERO good)

We'll win this fight in the same place we're winning the 2257 fight, in court.
I say email whoever you like as much as you like but in the end you should set aside some cash to donate to the legal fund we're most assuredly going to need to fight this in court.


Lenny,

I think that ICANN realized how many problems that .xxx would cause internationally. more technically than anything. one thing that one of the speakers talked about after the decision was ICANN did not believe that ICM Registry was representing the adult business. I believe that the emails to the ICANN forum may have at least showed them that. Do I think our whining to them stopped .xxx, not a chance. Please see my post here.

i don't think anyone should be running around the village declaring a landfall victory against this. we got lucky that the facts and ripple effect that .xxx would have sent through the internet worked to our advantage. no one at these levels of interweb cares about us.
