APRIL 02, 2007
THE body responsible for the global coordination of the internet's system of unique identifiers has rejected plans to establish a new ".xxx" domain for sexually explicit websites.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) said an ".xxx domain" would not resolve the issue of how to protect "vulnerable members of the community".

ICANN would also be obligated "to acquire a responsibility related to content and conduct," it said in a statement after a board meeting.
