Never say never Jace

The goal posts can change in the future and be nothing like what is envisaged right now. But sure - agree, and same here. Got no desire to change/buy domains or fill the pockets of swamplife by purchasing overpriced domains.

On the concerns over the "adult biz ghetto" and the dangers they may pose - easier said than done to "censor" TLD extensions, but bet ya if it does ever happen - a US admin will be the first to try it. Nobody else gives a shit and several nations have already opposed it.

Who knows, but smell the whole concept and selling of this idea was generated specifically to target approval by the "establishment" and as something which would appeal to "our higher moral values" - and "needs" to be done during the reign of the current admin. Ironically, that support does not appear to be strong ;-)

Then there is the future of ICANN itself - another sore point which will inevitably come to a head in the next three years...
