Seams the article claims this is partly cause of .XXX

------

ICANN's old method of approving TLDs came under fire in 2006 and 2007, when the ICANN board twice rejected an application for a .xxx TLD for adult-oriented content. A Florida startup first proposed a .xxx domain for sexually oriented content, but the proposal generated objections from some religious groups and even some pornography Web sites, which said the .xxx domain would segregate adult content and lead to governmental regulation. The ICANN board eventually dropped the controversial proposal.

LOL the only people that were on board for this were the guys making backroom deals.

im sure .xxx will get their tld now eventually but it will just be one of many amoung .sex and .web and .godonlyknows and .crap. At least this ensures they won't be able to make sure all adult content must be on .xxx.

as long as its not mandatory... But if it goes though, then it is a matter of time before it becomes that. At least in the US where the Church holds sooo much power.

fucking shiters

THere are going to be .tld wars to look forward to in 2009.

Wat's tld stands for?

tld = Top Level Domain
