.XXX - their baaaaaaaaack - GoFuckYourself.com

Still trying to get .XXX approved.. but with ICANN's last ruling about getting rid of the "sponsored TLD", it paves the way for .XXX or .SEX, or .WHATEVER to get approved.

Many who opposed .XXX (like myself) was due to the "sponsored" part.

As a standalone TLD, its no different than .biz, .info, etc (and look how well those did)

The domainers and registrars are certainly waiting for the .XXX application to be approved for the "landrush" to register the "premium" .XXX domains

May the mighty dollar determine if webmasters want to buy into paying premium rates like you see with .TV or having high yearly renewals that can be raised.

Fight the .$$$!

it's not that simple, as even without it being "sponsored", they (ICM) would still totally control this .TLD and most of the original dangers/risks associates with this idea, would be still valid.... IMO

I agree though that the significant changes in the .TLD application process made by ICANN last year, change the circumstances a little.

In short, I'm still against them being allowed to run an .xxx extension.
I haven't even read their new announcment yet though, will do it later.

On the other hand, the adult industry is surely suffering from some other things already, that weren't here just 2 years ago. I am not sure if adult webmasters would still have the drive to oppose .xxx as strongly as 2 years ago...

i concur...

i believe that .XXX application will be pushed to the front of the line to get reviewed, due to the litigation (threats) and pressure ICM has been putting on ICANN.

I predict that .XXX will get approved... and the domainers and registrars will rejoice.

Then over time, we'll see if governments try to use .XXX as a filtering means.

Why .XXX Will Not Be The Downfall Of The Adult Industry

Posted on 03/09/07

i published this little gem of wisdom the first time we got .XXX canned on the boards and in a few industry rags, but i think it needs revisiting based on the fact that .XXX is back. the wicked witch is not dead. i still don?t see the level of unity that we need to see to become a unified force to deal with. one day we are going to learn a tough lesson the hard way. i wrote this on the day that we found that icann had denied the creation of .xxx the first time.

-from that article -

i really care about this industry and a lot of the people in it. we got lucky today. nothing more nothing less. if anyone thinks icann spared the ?poor pornographers? i would seriously reconsider that thought. they are a business too, and .xxx stood to put an assload of money in there pockets. i am sure that their reasons for not voting it in are not the ones that many of you may be thinking. i don?t say this to insult anyone?s intelligence, but i do feel that unless you have followed this for a long time, you may not understand the nastiness that this would have caused on many different levels.

i hope this serves as a wake up call to the adult industry as a whole to start taking the industry as a whole more serious. this could have very easily gone the other way. the time is now to support these organizations that go to bat for this business, act like professionals, and push through the TLDs that ?we? know will stop kids from accessing adult materials as best as possible.

we do in fact peddle immoral goods in the eyes of millions of americans and the governments that ?protect? those people. however, many other industries are also peddling ?immoral? and in fact extremely devastating products that affect the daily lives of americans for the negative. let?s talk about gun manufacturers, cigarette companies, alcohol companies, and drug companies, just to shave a sliver off the type of companies that push ?questionable? materials to all the poor innocent americans.

all of these industries are represented at the government level and lobby hard to make things happen in their favor.

it is a known fact that cigarettes kill millions every year, disrupting families and damaging happy american dreamer?s lives every day.

guns are responsible for many deaths each year, yet still are poured on to the streets in ridiculous numbers. All legally, and under the limitations of the law, but only barely.

how many people die from paxil, vioxx, and god only knows how many other drugs that are advertised to people on prime time t.v. every night? All legally, and under the limitations of the law, but only barely.

alcohol companies market under the radar to young people under the guise of crafty marketing campaigns and nifty, chic ads designed to subliminally entice them into the products. All legally, and under the limitations of the law, but only barely.

porn does in fact break up marriages, cause some people to become sex addicts, possibly influence young people to have sex more frivolously, but in my opinion, and the opinion for may others, does not do the damage that many of these ?represented? industries of vice and destruction.

these other industries work on the fringe of ?immoral and questionable? just as we do, but they do it by the government?s rules.

our industry has problems uniting. until we get over that, there will always be another .xxx, another law, another acacia, and blah blah blah.

i can get into a ridiculously lengthy editorial on why i think what i think from a ton of different perspectives, but i won?t. i guess my main point out of all of this is this industry is so ?me me me? that everyone risks everything they have more regularly than makes me comfortable, because many of us can say ?us?.

that?s all. I am extremely relieved. this could have easily been the beginning of a very long and trying period as .xxx would have been the roller coaster ride to hell in so many ways.

congrats people, but like baddog said, ?well, doubt she(.xxx) is dead, but hospitalized anyway?.

be well everyone. we dodged a bullet.

UPDATE: Nothing has changed. Its all worse actually. I have given up putting my neck out there on anything anymore. Good Luck to Everyone. It's a whole new ballgame with different rules now.

Well it should go right together with this.

Make porn a bad neighbourhood of the net
What I'm proposing is a sort of civic zoning for the internet, where domains that are unsuitable for minors end up clustered together in some way that makes it harder for minors to access. Not impossible, just harder.

Alone .xxx is just another domain extension and will be like all other domains. sex.xxx will be valuable to own while ilovehotgirlsinporn.xxx not so much.

When it becomes a burden is if a government decides to pass a law requiring all adult websites to be on a .xxx extension. If that happens the lawsuits will fly and the shit will hit the fan. Somehow I don't forsee that happening either.

I think there is about even odds that .xxx will be approved. If it is approved then what happens next is the big story.

Once again just alert the christian media and outlets that us nasty filthy pornographers are trying to get an approved TLD so that we can seem more legitimate and have yet another area on the internet to spread our sick sinful behavior.

They will do the work for us.
