XXX comment

[WebMagic101@xxxxxxx]

To the ICANN administrators:

I am very much opposed to allowing the  use of a XXX extension.  By allowing 
it, an entire can of worms can be  opened that will be almost impossible to 
stop and will certainly cause a  tremendous web of legal nightmares.

Companies within the adult industry will be subject to lawsuits  deciding 
whether the owners of the .com, .net or .biz effectively have '1st  chance' 
registration rights, 'IF' in fact there isn't already  a trademark involved.  
Beyond that there are basic freedoms to be  considered.  If the extension is 
allowed, there is nothing to keep everyone  from merchant processors, banking 
institutes and even government from trying to  enforce a virtual 'red light 
district' to those involved.  Does ICANN truly  want to be known as the 
catalyst 
behind countless, {possibly  unconsidered} negative possibilities?
 
Its already been established over and over that the adult online  industry 
does NOT want the extension, how many more times does this have to be  
addressed 
before the message is taken to heart?  Just because one company  (obviously 
ICM - the proposed monetary recipient) uses its money to  continually try and 
hammer this through your organization does not  mean you cannot say and mean 
the word 'NO' once and for all; you can and  should. 
 
The adult industry does not want it, countries outside of the US do not  want 
it and even you at ICANN have stated your negativity towards it - once  again 
I implore you to reject this proposal.   

Respectfully,
Victoria
