Hmmmm.
This organization will get to SET RULES, telling you what you can and can't do with your .XXX domain name. Again, it is NOT a generic TLD proposal. This is totally different than .COM, so if you don't understand, learn about it.
Anyone who invests time, energy and money into a site on a .XXX domain name is, in my humble opinion, a complete idiot and will deserve their fate. Imagine investing countless hours promoting your website, money on traffic, branding, having an established user base, and then the .XXX gods show up and say, "You now have to do this laundry list of things in order to keep your domain name. If you don't like it, give up the domain."
Why would ANY business person with ANY sense whatsoever willingly put themselves in that position?

Maybe that's what the industry needs, someone outside the industry regulating it, because history shows none of the tardos in this industry can even regulate themselves let alone a whole industry.
