Buh-bye .XXX
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/12...ann_kills_xxx/
ICANN kills .xxx porn domain But where's the pressure come from? By Kieren McCarthy in Vancouver Published Thursday 1st December 2005 20:48 GMT Get breaking Internet news straight to your desktop - click here to find out how The proposed .xxx porn domain has been kicked into the long grass just days before it was due to meet final approval. ICANN chairman Vint Cerf stunned an open meeting of the governmental advistory committee (GAC) in Vancouver late on Tuesday when he announced that the whole issue had been pulled from the Board meeting agenda - where it had been the first topic of discussion. Click Here The reason given (this time) was that the GAC needed time to review a 350-page ICANN report on the domain's feasibility before it could provide its approval (or disapproval). That's a red herring though. The report was completed on 31 August, and is mostly complimentary about the proposed domain. Not only that but all the issues surrounding the domain are already well known to everyone involved, and up until Cerf's sudden announcement, had been effectively given the green light. ICANN has come under pressure to release the report and so provide adequate excuse for delaying .xxx's approval yet again. The people behind .xxx, ICM Registry, opposed its release, complaining that no other new domains had had their ICANN report released before they had been granted final approval and that they were being unfairly treated. However, if rumours are to be believed, ICANN took a top-level decision to release the report and so provide a delay excuse, after EU commissioner Viviane Reding called the head of ICANN Paul Twomey direct and threatened to withdraw all the EU's representatives unless the issue was pulled. Twomey this morning denied he had had any communication with Reding over the issue. If would certainly be an unusual decision on Reding's part, especially since the EU has been mostly supportive of .xxx. It is only Brazil and the US administration that remain opposed to the domain. More likely is that the US government intervened but is desperate to avoid being seen to do so because of the ongoing Internet governance conflict, where the US government retains unilateral control of the Internet but claims never to use apply it. The Bush administration has been very effectively lobbied by the Christian right, and the US is desperate to make it look as though other governments are equally concerned about .xxx. The conspriacy theory is that by delaying .xxx, the EU puts a spotlight on the US' attempts to sway the course of the Internet. Whether that's true or not, it still leaves one furious owner of ICM Registry, Stuart Lawley, who has sunk millions into the project and been consistently stymied at the last minute by unusual delays. ® ------------------------------------------------ I would like to think that those that took a public stand against .XXX at http://www.FightTheDotXXX.com and the packet i sent in to ICANN did some good to demonstrate that .XXX is a bad idea. .KIDS TLD is the best way to stop kids from seeing the "bad stuff" (along with parental supervision) Fight the .XXX!

The demise of .XXX, at least for the foreseeable future is great news for both folks in the adult business and domain speculators, such as myself ... I've been getting more inquiries lately regarding my adult for sale domains.

I overnighted and faxed a 15 page document to ICANN to explain why .XXX was bad (and how .KIDS is good), along with the names of these companies in the adult space, that have taken a public stand against .XXX
I'd like to think that the notable names on this list (from http://www.FightTheDotXXX.com) made it clear to ICANN that there was not a community-wide support for .XXX, that ICM claimed to have.

I pre-registered over $750,000.00 worth of .xxx names and at no point did the sites selling the pre-registrations say anything about .xxx not being available. They wouldn't have kept silent and just collect everyone's money for nothing, right? Are you saying that I am I out this money? What if I sell these pre-registrations to someone on e-bay? Let me know because I could be out a bunch of cash! Let me know as soon as possible! Thanks! |

from ICM Registry's website: http://www.icmregistry.com/pre-registration.html Notice about potentially misleading pre-registration opportunities ICM Registry has been informed that several so called "registration services" providers may be offering pre-registration for domain names in the .XXX top-level domain. In response, ICM Registry advises that the .XXX top-level domain has not yet been launched, and no registrar or other entity has been licensed or authorized by ICM Registry or ICANN to register .XXX domain names. No party claiming to offer registration services or name reservation services in .XXX can is authorized to do so and any claim by any entity suggesting it has or will have preferential or advantageous access to registration services when .XXX is launched is false. We advise consumers to be very cautious of such schemes and regularly check our website or join our mailing list for updates on availability of .xxx , which will be through ICANN accredited registrars. These types of scheme were also in operation during the last round of TLDs launched by ICANN a few years ago and the problem became so prevalent , the Federal Trade Commission issued the following advisory: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/...domainalrt.htm Fight the ...and if you act now, we'lll throw in an extra .XXX domain for the same high price!
