And a few idiots laughed at me for suggesting this.

(Mashable) -- Is it just me or is the ICANN plan to corral online porn going terribly wrong? We already have reports that universities are snapping up XXX domains in an effort to get ahead of porn pranksters who want to besmirch a few good online names with smut.
Atop GoDaddy's XXX domain registration page is this: "Let's be adult about it. Create an adult Web presence or protect your brand." This is followed by an explanation of why you'd want to register an XXX domain. Note what it starts with:
"Secure your brand. Protect your reputation."
"Perhaps you'd like to create an adult entertainment website. Or maybe you're here to keep your brand from being registered as a .XXX by someone else. Whatever your reasons for wanting a .XXX domain, you've come to the right place. To check the availability of your domain, type the name you want into the search box above. "
I guess this turn of events was obvious to anyone with half a brain.

I guess those who thought I was foolish thinking this will now come and say sorry. Or prove themselves rude as well as stupid.
sadly here too many look at the name of the poster, decide if the post is good or bad, maybe read the post and then flame or support it.
If Shap says it, it has to be right. I I say it, it has to be wrong.
Whether it is or not, isn't the question. It's only the name of the poster that decides.
It took me a few minutes to figure out the other purpose behind .xxx. If we don't register or don't put porn on .xxxx sites, even if we do have them. Stuart Lawley will sink into bankruptcy. If we use .xxx, then he will make money from non porn with just the threat of us putting porn on a site with a name that people want to protect.
