What you described concerns me. A lot. I'm a great lover of personal freedoms and grey-area activities like smoking pot and nude sunbathing, and other things you could in all 50 states 10 years ago, but could do hard time for today.

I have no idea what will happen with this bill, but I'm afraid the .xxx will prevail.
A few bottles of Imperial is a good idea!

I bet nude sun bathing is a public indecency offense with a term of 5 years??

There appear to be even more webmasters heading this way to escape - and also for varied other reasons I know a few US and Canadian folks moving here soon and also some from the EU - it sounds like a community is developing.

Who knows, but kinda doubt the current proposals will end up as legislation. From what has been published so far, it appears too simplified and weak with no consideration of other issues going on re ICANN, TLD control and country representation.

If it does pass into law, it will obviously cause problems for webmasters in the US and likely give a few other countries some hosting business. Fortunately all others don't operate under US law, but ya kinda feel pissed on principle for those it may affect.
