In my opinion (corrections are welcome) the current situation is partial control, that is a website is supposed to declare if it has xrated material. When all xrated material will be under one tld, the businesses in this industry will have it tough. Their customers will only be people who were intending to visit. No more accidental hits. And now blocking these sites will be much easier
Its just a way for icann and the registrars to sell more domains ... porn sites are still gonna be in the .com domain (or any domain they chose to be in) ... there is no rule or law forcing any porn-site to operate in this tld - it would be impossible to implement such a mechanism.
That's what I thought too. Just because .xxx is there will in no way make all XXX creator/biz to move their domains into that tld. As a matter of fact, I'm very sure they will not take it up because it will make filtering their content the easiest thing on the planet. Still not sure why ICANN allowed it. There must be a reason, only it's not quite clear. I don't think they (XXX content generators) asked for it. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
