One of the arguments used by the ICM is that once there's a .xxx tld, parents will be able to block porn by blocking .xxx domains. This is of course BS since there's already plenty of porn on the other tld's. And since there's no way for ICANN to effectively move all adult content away from the already existing tld's to the proposed .xxx tld, unless they turn themselves into a huge content review agency that constantly monitors all websites and webpages and drops violating domains (they would have to raise the price of a .com to let's say $100/y just to pay for the manpower and infrastructure), the only way to create a porn-free area on the web is to create a .kids tld with a strict application and review procedure. Parents would then be able to "block everything except for .kids domains". It's the same tactics you apply hen you set up a firewall: block everything except for the things you want to allow.
