from bbc news: Sex sites get dedicated net home

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4602449.stm

Sex sites get dedicated net home

Pornographic websites are about to get their own online home.
A proposal to create net domains ending .xxx has been approved by the body that oversees the net's addressing system.

they can't force you to give up a .com if you are paying taxes etc...

it's commercial. Are you making money and paying taxes?
if so it's not any different than any other site.

Sexually explicit sites will be encouraged to move to the new domains to make it easier for people to filter and avoid them.

"ICM Registry was formed specifically to lobby for the creation of the .xxx domain.
Moving to the .xxx domain will be entirely voluntary but ICM said that some pornographers have expressed support for the idea."

Some = those that would profit from the sales of them.

"The $60 price is roughly ten times higher than prices other companies charge for dot-com names."

How kind of them. I wonder how expensive the .jobs and .travel domains will be.

The US government will eventually create even more fucked up regulations that... only affect .com sites, essentially forcing all adult US businesses to switch to .xxx. It's 2-3 years away IMHO.

CM contends the "xxx" Web addresses, which it plans to sell for $60 a year, will protect children from online smut if adult sites voluntarily adopt the suffix so filtering software used by families can more effectively block access to those sites.

The $60 price is roughly ten times higher than prices other companies charge for dot-com names.

"It will further help to protect kids," said John Morris, staff counsel at the Washington-based Center for Democracy and Technology. Morris predicted some adult sites will choose to buy "xxx" Web addresses but others will continue to use dot-com.
$60

Exactly.

They'll have to pry my .com's out of my cold dying hands if they ever want to get them.

This would last in court, if they ever tried to make it law, about as long as a fart in the wind. I'm not worried about this one. Now 2257? Thats different. The Bush fascists will put teeth in that one. Til that also will be inevitably struck down in court.

1. When will xxx domains be available?
2. Are they going to cost a lot or the same as .com domains.
3. What will happen if you have the domain sex.com (for instance) and another person buys sex.xxx or thehun.xxx?
4. What's the bet the they will bring out laws that say all porn sites must be on .xxx?

How many webmasters will be getting .xxx names?

I can see someone with a lot of cash buying the whole lot and everybody else being screwed over.
