| Yeah I would've thought the Federal Mafia and Watchdog groups would love to see these type of sites on one domain. It would be easier to keep and eye on some of these sites.

You presume that such sites would move, and, if they did bother to register .xxx TLDs, that they'd abandon their other TLD registrations.

said by PhoenixDown :Its not like the adult sites would stop using their .com domains. Well, I only read the first post and decided to reply, so it might have been said already, but... Even though I don't have any kids, I can already imagine myself at age 13-17 if the .xxx domains existed. Free previews anyone??? Why make this even easier for the children by labeling it a specific block? I don't think we should concede to EVERYTHING when it comes to domains. .tv is understandable, .biz .gov .edu .com. and .net are also, but .xxx is not a good idea.

As long as religion has a hold of part of government and others in this country, we won't see things that make sense. It's always "about the children" but when something comes up to make sense, we don't do it.
Having an .XXX TLD would "further promote sex" on the web.. And???? What's the problem?
But, they have no problem pushing an abstinence only program that has done no good at the expense of the tax payer. Last time I checked, this is a free country and people have a right to express their self as they see fit especially in the privacy of their own home.
This new world of all about the children is more sickening that those who abuse them sexually.. now they are just abused all around including politically.

.tv is actually a country code... its a coincidence that it happens to be the same abbreviation as television.

Sarcasm escapes you. 
I was merely pointing out (as have others) that most websites would still have a .com address to redirect them to the .xxx address.
Look at www.whitehouse.com. Think you are going to find 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue there? It used to be something else.
All the .xxx domain would have done would point people (kids included) to the right direction for finding porn. Plain and simple.
The .xxx domain will not solve anything. |
