I am not an advocate I am merely saying some people will buy .XXX to expand there business and protect or capitalise on trademarks. Either way its a shit storm.
In theory....
When the processors move in and start transacting .XXX what will you be doing? You will be staying with the transaction provider I would hope as matter of business. But... You would be doing business with guys that support .XXX since those transactions providers ultimately process .XXX sites. or will you cashing out transactions providers as amatter of ethics?
No matter how you kick it you will learn to cope it one way or another. You can black list companies sure but when those companies you depend on turn the page where will you be?
These are things each webmaster will have to decide.
The ones talking out there ass screaming they will black list anyone associated with .XXX or doing business with .XXX is full of shit. If they stick to those principals they are going to stonewall themselves into a corner and be forced to make a decision.
Decide where you will sit now just so its not such a shock down the road.
You think for a second that if CCBILL decided they will transact .XXX that affiliates will be pulling links to programs that use CCBILL? Fuck no. You think programs that buy .XXX domains will have webmasters pull links? Fuck no.
Best bet is to watch what you say because in the end you will be forced to deal with .XXX if it does go through. You will back peddle and make exceptions and excuses.
