so the motivation is easy to understand..its the profit margin.
i have no doubt that this will get approved.. and that's when the nightmare begins for domain owners who do want to get the domain, to deal with cybersquatters, etc... and who knows if congress will get involved.. the talk of a "porn tax" for California seems like an easy place to squeeze money.. since mainstream sees the adult as being this multi-billion dollar bucket, ripe to be taxed like all the other "sins".
