Members of the Board

Neither ICANN nor the company urging the establishment of this new domain are 
arguing that the .XXX domain would clean up the .COM domain and require all 
pornographers to move to .XXX.  The .COM domain is a cash cow for pornographers 
and they are not leaving it.  ICANN has no enforcement powers to make them 
leave and thus clean up .COM.  Pornographers would simply expand to .XXX and 
maintain their current .COM sites, perhaps doubling the number of porn sites 
and doubling their menace to society.
There is no evidence that the public wants or needs this domain. In fact, each 
time this idea has been proposed it has been overwhelmingly opposed by the 
public and governments throughout the world. There is also absolutely no 
evidence that any good would come of it. Instead it appears that the company 
proposing it is merely seeking enrichment at the expense of the public. 
Pornography addiction is skyrocketing among adult males and is even affecting 
many women and children in the same way. Countless marriages are breaking up 
because of pornography use and sexual promiscuity is more widespread than ever 
before because of pornography. Pornography is destroying lives and 
relationships and ICANN should not be using its authority to promote more of it.

Please do not create a .XXX domain.

Sincerely,

Tim Glover
