My thoughts on .XXX

[Klub Kelli <klubkelli@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN,

I am a member of the .XXX TLD so called *sponsored community* so I wanted to
make it clear that in no way shape or form do I support ICM's application
for the .XXX TLD.

I request that ICANN does the following:

   1. Verify that companies which ICM has listed in support are viable adult
   businesses,
   2. Verify that companies listed in support in fact do support ICM’s
   current application for a .XXX sTLD,
   3. Determine how many pre-registrations claimed by ICM are in fact
   defensive registrations,
   4. Determine how many pre-registrations are registrars or companies
   hoping to re-sell domain names.

Additionally, I also request the following information also be released as
requested in the DIDP from the FSC:

   1. The list of the IFFOR Board members;
   2. The list of proposed members of the Policy Council;
   3. IFFOR’s Business Plan/Financials;
   4. Business Plan/Financials Years 1-5 utilizing 125,000 Initial
   Registrations;
   5. The list of .XXX sTLD pre-registrants who have been identified to
   ICANN;
   6. ICM’s Proof of *Sponsorship Community* Support as submitted to ICANN.

I have been in the so called *sponsored community* for going on 15 years now
and it is my honest and sincere opinion that approving this TLD based on the
current plan is not a good idea.

The whole ghetto thing aside, which in itself is a very serious issue.
Really what right does any company have to come in and dictate how
businesses should be run?  That is exactly what the people want to to
control the .XXX domain name extension want to do.

Do they somehow think they have more knowledge than the supreme court?
Because based on their proposal, that is exactly what it seems like.

I don't know about you, but I don't want to give control of my company up to
anyone, let alone someone with no proven history or background in the
industry he is trying to regulate.

What if you woke up one day to find that you no longer have real control of
your company.  This whole thing isn't right and I so oppose it.

Sincerely yours, Kelli Roberts
