Batts you live in a pretty uptight place lol

That's awesome... do you guys think this .xxx thing will go through?

Canada wrote a letter against also

Australia has been run by conservatives for 11 years.

call me a party crasher but couldnt' someone fake something like that ?

So fucken what!!!

Who ever listen to Australia's anyway (speaking as an Australian).

That's hot... nice work australia...

I sent a letter a couple months ago to my Canadian deputy representative to tell him to oppose the .xxx tld

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

nice one :)

did he reply?

why is it uptight ?

Australian law is a joke.

You need a licence just to own a sword here :)

Just read the attached PDF letter.

Like I thought the only reason they sent in an email against .xxx is because they've got the sooks up about X rated content on the internets & their current offline battle on making sure you can only legally buy nudie movies in the ACT.

It's nice, but the reasoning is wrong and I'm kind of embarrassed to find them so narrow-minded.

why embarassed?

and it's not your government anyway

keep in mind the last time we won against .xxx it was because of conservative groups and US Government opposing .xxx for the very same reasons as the Australian government now does

thats hardly a surprise what they wrote but that shouldn't matter to us, whats important is that their made their opposition clear again

Didn't the Australian Govt send a similar letter at one of the earlier stages as well? I don't think this is their first letter.

Yeah they did. Here's an article from around this time last year.

My stage name is "Dave Cummings" and, besides my www.davecummings.com website,
I own many adult dot.com domains. Contrary to ICM's subjective claims, I see
almost ZERO Sponsored Community support for .xxx, but I do indeed see
CONSIDERABLE opposition to it. Please permanently deny .xxx ---it's NOT wanted
by the Sponsored Community, and it's not an appropriate potential legal mess
for ICANN to become trapped into.

Sincerely,

Dave Cummings/D. Charles Conners
