Do no allow the .XXX domain to exist!
If passed, .xxx will likely have the effect of creating an adult "ghetto"
that would make it easy for cities, states, or countries to restrict or ban
access to adult content. Additionally, .xxx domains will cost more than $60
PER YEAR. It is also conceivable that even if laws do not pass limiting porn
to .xxx Visa and other payment options could demand that all adult content
be served from a .xxx domain.
As for protecting kids from porn, .xxx will do no such thing. Even if adult
content is restricted to .xxx, there will still be numerous small, off brand
domains from tiny countries that allow adult content, thereby completely
defeating the purpose.
The positive goals of .xxx (preventing access by children and those who
don't wish to view adult content) can be achieved by a combination of a
.kids domain, voluntary listing of adult sites with existing content
filters, and parental involvement.
I oppose the .XXX Domain.
