.XXX Rejected Again
Caloo, calay, the .xxx domain has been given the boot again, and most adult webmasters are happy with this result.
I for one, am pleased I don’t have to fork out US$65 a year to register msnaughty.xxx so some other bastard doesn’t hijack it. I would not have moved this site to .xxx if it went ahead, but I would have had to buy the other domain as “insurance.”
Ms Naughty is labelled with ICRA so it can be filtered by responsible parents. Labelling is the best option for keeping adult material away from kids and is supported by the adult industry.
The other thing, of course, is that a .xxx domain is impossible to police and would have given fundy governments (and credit card companies) an excuse to ghettoise free speech.
