We don't have to worry about entire countries blocking the TLD, it will happen at many different levels, ISP's , universities, businesses, hotels, wifi hubs, etc.
Indeed, this will probably have a big influence as well..... universities, hotels etc who hold a nice market share.

Its going to be an interesting ride, thats for sure

Those are good points. Imagine a business or university or hotel not blocking .xxx, they would look like clueless neanderthals. I can totally see ISPs and search engines blocking .xxx by default also and requiring individual opt-ins to see it. And every country that is officially against porn or wants to look like it is fighting porn will block it for sure. .Xxx may crash before it is even released.

It would not shock me at all if Google and others eventually decide to default searches without .xxx results and require users to turn them 'on' in order to see them at all. :2 cents:
This is actually a very very good point and one of probably the most relevant to mainstream porners. I don't care about traffic from China or India but I damn sure care about my US traffic from Google and you are right. How easy would it be for Google to do this? THAT is what scares me.

The US will not block .XXX? Are you insane? It's the main market of that TLD.

The only reason .xxx has been allowed to pass is BECAUSE of the ability to block it.

Otherwise it's completely ridiculous as there is no other point to it at all.

Thank you. Glad to see someone here still thinks like a business person.
