ICANN Haz .xxx Domain?

Good luck finding someone who has used the Internet for a while and hasn't stumbled into some sexually explicit content. The new .xxx top level domain that ICANN has approved gives further credibility to the porn industry. The only way that I would ever be in favor of creating a red light district on the Internet is if there were a way to completely eradicate sexually explicit content everywhere else. If that were possible, all someone would have to do is download a web filter, filter .xxx domains, and pick a garbage password and forget it. Problem solved, you'll never see Internet porn again! Children would be protected, and marriages would not fail because of Internet pornography viewing. The beauty of the Internet is that no government currently has the ability to regulate it, but the problem with that is no one can enforce "law" making moving all that objectionable content to .xxx domains impossible. Therefore I will NEVER be in favor of a red light district. The .xxx domain speaks only of the depravity of the human race.

  1. OpenDNS does a great job of filtering my network!

  2. I agree with you; since no one believe that complete censorship is possible, legitimization of the aforementioned "xxx" domain would be little more than a thumbs up to the pornography industry.
