That's what trademark protection is for, I'm fairly sure if you went and bought juicyads.xxx and started an adult ad network we could take the name fairly easy. Just like when guys buy different trademark brands on other urls.

I understand when dot xxx first came out some of the fears and anger it caused, but we are now just around the corner from seeing dot sex, dot porn, dot fuck, and thousands of other TLDs. So to me it just seems dot xxx was ahead of the curve in the TLD game.
