It makes no sense to try and confine pornography online to a .xxx domain. None of the existing sites will be forced to move, they'll just redirect from the .xxx to their existing sites.

The problem is also one of definition - what is pornography? Who defines it? The USA, China, Iran, the Netherlands? One mans porn is another mans art...

Couldn't agree more with J.F.F, Baltimore, MD. if you want it you know where to look, if you don't want it our your kids/workers to have access to it, then this will make it MUCH easier to block. ALL PORN SHOULD BE .xxx

If it is true that ".xxx" would be more easily recognized on filters AND help prevent accidental viewing, it makes perfect sense. I find it difficult to understand why it has been rejected so many times. The question is; What is this plan going to complicate for all the groups that make money through Internet pornography? And, is the answer to that question the real reason why ".xxx" hasn't been excepted? I wouldn't be surprised if it all comes back to money. I personally do not agree with the Pornography industry, but I do believe in free speech and everyone has a right to express themselves as they wish. I also believe that if a grown adult wishes to view pornography then that should be their own choice. But a child who is curious or completely unsuspecting or anyone who accidentally clicks on the wrong link should NOT be bombarded with offensive material. I'm sure that it all comes down to money NOT logistics, and people will still do whatever they can to make a buck.

I think 'ghetto' is an unfortunate choice of words. Unlike in the physical world, pornograghic content can be appropriately fenced off from the mentally fit internet clientele, without being inflicted on the neighborhoods of the underpriveledged. By all means let's shove internet porn into it's hole, or bowl, and flush while you we are at it.

I think right thing to do is have .xxx as it is easier to identify, it is no way different from having .edu

pornos are opposing as they would lose accidental traffic. religious group are just that...groups oppose anything porn eventhough this is actually good for them.
