What, you don't now suddenly feel it's safe to turn 8 year olds loose on the Internet now that .XXX has arrived to create a "safe area" for them? lol

What "area" is that exactly... I'm still looking for it. Are .com's now "safe" for kids? Nope. Are they suggesting .XXX is a "safe area" for kids? Wow, I hope not. And I hope nobody in the mainstream thinks that's where they're going.

We all know by now what "impact" .XXX will REALLY have on child online safety. What concerns me is, if the .XXX people, in their quest for money, make misleading and false claims about "child protection," thinking this is a selling point or that it gives them politician advantage to use in other ways that help them, and then mainstream erroneously believes .XXX is a general industry initiative, we're going to ALL look like sleazy politicians peddling clear lines of bullshit to get rich. Guilt by proximity, in this case.
