Also, who is to say what is "offensive" or "dangerous to children"? You don't seriously think that only pr0n would be forced into the .xxx TLD, do you? (Aactually, it's pretty funny that anyone in their right mind would expect this happen anyway.) I can also see cases where someone's blog get's relegated to the .xxx TLD because of a few colorful remarks or a use of the 'f' word... Not too much of a stretch to see abuses of this nature. - ferg -- "Geo." <geoincidents () nls net> wrote:
Why? If we can coral them in it and legislate to have no porn anywhere else than on .xxx ... should fix the issue for the prudes out there.
Because once you separate them out, the government is free to slap a tax on .xxx websites. Geo. -- "Fergie", a.k.a. Paul Ferguson Engineering Architecture for the Internet fergdawg () netzero net or fergdawg () sbcglobal net ferg's tech blog: http://fergdawg.blogspot.com/
