News - ICANN approves .xxx adult entertainment domain

[aidanjt]

Because there are enough already?

Also given how most porn sites fail to deliver anything but silly spyware, hence why as a recent mac user, I know I'm immune, because we don't need any smut, what with all the hot girls and scooters we have.....

Hahahahahahaha.. sadly, a US republican 'mrs family values' senator recently used that sentiment as an argument against the .xxx top level domain in the past, and meant it.

Good god, I'm not trying to start a PC vs MAC flame war, but how up yourself can you be about owning a MAC? Seriously? "I know I'm immune"

Guess, what, I *know* I'm immune, too, thanks to common sense. In other words, don't click on adverts that are clearly designed to infect your computer.

I do want to insist that I'm not trying to start a flame war, I just don't get why MAC users feel the need to be so arrogant about the fact that they own an overpriced fancy looking computer...?

You obviously haven't met TheAnimus before, he's Hexus' very own Apple hater. His Apple rage exceeds my own. And he was, of course, jesting with me.

Sarcasm fail ...

Could be interesting seeing the amount of domain squatters with the amount of publicity this is receiving...



What's the biggest problem for a farmer with a field full of dildos?


Squatters...

Why top level domain for porn?

Bit strange...

Because there is so much of it on the intarwebs.

Had to (probably NSFW, although only banter).

If .xxx automatically gets blocked by one company or a group, e.g. I can't see China allowing access to it then I don't see all that many companies rushing to move to the new domain as it will potentially exclude them from a lot of search engines.

[s1lv3r]

so... '.xxx' for the 'legal' porn..

what next?

'.pdo' or is that too obvious for a honeytrap?

[davidcrofter]

I have just registered xxx.hexus.net just in case you decide to change your business model ...

[cameronlite]

I'm very tempted to register something like toys 'r' us

Which is why I, personally, think its important that only "adult service providers" are permitted to register .xxx but not required to, so they can keep using whatever other TLDs they wish.

Education, not censorship.
