We're covering it from Brussels... doesn't look good

That seems to be the word on the street...

Emma · 06-24-2010, 01:40 PM

we don't need .xxx

Spudstr · 06-24-2010, 01:42 PM

Was I the only person who read. "But members of ICANN's board have argued that in order to maintain neutrality in dealing with domain name assignations, it should create .xxx and allow websites with sexually explicit content to start using the suffix on a voluntary basis."

So what I gather it will be a voluntary solution.

That is exactly how I read it.

FreeHugeMovies · 06-24-2010, 01:47 PM

Aren't they trying to stick it to us as well? Isn't each domain like 25 bucks or something?

beerptrol · 06-24-2010, 01:47 PM

I was looking over trademarks and noticed quite a few .xxx domains trademarked

it has always been voluntary they cant force you to use a domain anymore than .org forces everyone to be a not for profit.

$5 submissions · 06-24-2010, 01:50 PM

Instablocking is definitely in the future.

In a sense, .xxx domains are like those city ordnances that relegated strip bars and sex shops to warehouse districts and other specially designated areas. Less foot traffic.

Quentin · 06-24-2010, 02:10 PM

Good to see that Reuters relies on the same total bullshit stats about the adult internet that other media outlets do.

Quote:

Online pornography is a vast industry. Figures collated by Internet Pornography Statistics suggest more than $3,000 is spent on Internet pornography every second, with "sex" the number one search term in the world, accounting for 25 percent of all Internet searches.

Riiiiight. $259,200,000.00 is being spent per day on web-based porn. That's a totally reasonable estimate and not at all absurd.

Do journalists check facts at all any more? For that matter, do they own calculators?

I hope it doesn't pass, oh and fuck stewart lawley

We should send that link to every church we can find......LOL

FightThisPatent · 06-24-2010, 02:25 PM

chatting with Tom Hymes now in icq who is over there now, it ain't over yet...

but ICANN certainly has alot of pressures and fear of lawley's lawsuit that .XXX might just get passed.

Fight the .XXX!

Coup · 06-24-2010, 03:20 PM

i can't wait for .xxx

ThumbLord · 06-24-2010, 03:27 PM

Stewart Lawley is a prick and GOD please let the .xxx FAIL

Major (Tom) · 06-24-2010, 03:39 PM

The industry is so small now, affiliates gone, affiliate programs closing left and right, x sales gone, who the F needs a .xxx? I'd conjecture it will suffer the same fate as a .info etc.

jalami · 06-24-2010, 03:50 PM

It should be the other way around, .kids makes more sense...

GeckoDude · 06-24-2010, 03:51 PM

who took www.xxx.xxx ?

kristin · 06-24-2010, 03:55 PM

Nothing will change, .com will still have all the same porn sites on it and .xxx will just be a place for squatters to go hoping for the errant address entry to whitelabel.

scarlettcontent · 06-24-2010, 04:12 PM

You have the right to apply for domains in .xxx that you already own in .com,
.net or another TLD, such as a country code TLD.

kane · 06-24-2010, 05:13 PM

I don't think we need it, but I think it will pass.

When ICANN relaxed the rules for creating a TLD a few years ago they pretty much opened the door for this to happen.

CYF · 06-24-2010, 06:19 PM

.xxx is just going to be another crappy TLD just like .info and .biz

BFT3K · 06-24-2010, 06:21 PM

So hurry up and register your .xxx extension everyone!

Your site could be the first one filtered off the net!

Don't miss out!

I don't know why anyone in the business puts any faith in them at all. They are totally useless. Always have been, always will be.

Cyber Fucker · 06-24-2010, 07:10 PM

Sooner or later ...personally I don't like the idea of more tlds but ICANN and registrars want badly new tlds so, we are doomed for new tlds.

I bet if it goes thru they will immediately start lobbying for it to be law in the us. I just got a feeling. Then they can charge whatever they want.

Sounds like gentrification to me.

You can watch the decision live, right now (4:38 am Eastern time) remotely, with live video and chat:

They're on a break, and will be deciding .xxx in a few minutes.

NickB. · 06-25-2010, 01:39 AM

Yes they will get it through at this try or the next or the next. They will not stop trying until it's passed.

Chosen · 06-25-2010, 04:42 AM
