Dear Concerned Citizen:

I share your concerns about the proliferation of pornography on the Internet and the victimization of children. It is the policy and the track record of this Administration to protect children online, to provide a safe place for children online, and to combat child pornography. While the Department of Commerce does not make policy decisions with regard to domain names or Internet content, we remain committed to combating child pornography and other abuses of the Internet. If you have concerns regarding the .xxx domain, you can submit them to the organization that creates top-level domains:
