Top level porn domain to be considered by ICANN board
The domain extension creation season seem to be upon us again. A few days after Nomine, the UK domain name registration authority started a consultative process to create one and two character domain names along with a host of other domain name extensions withing the .uk domain name space, the sponsors of another domain name extension, the top level extension .xxx were getting ready to push for the creation of their domain extension.
.xxx domain extension which the sponsor want to create specifically for website with adult contents went before ICANN for approval about three years ago but the plan was not approved. The sponsors have dust their proposals down and are putting it before ICANN again on the 12t of March 2010 at their meeting in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi.
Sponsors of .xxx domain were buoyed by the conclusion of an independent panel that looked into rejection of the domain extension about three years ago, the panel said: “decision to reject .xxx domain was unfair and that the plan should be reconsidered.” members of ICANN may be forced to back the plan to create the exclusively adult website domain extension in a few days time.
One avid domain name property speculator and adult website webmaster said “creation of .xxx domain extension will actually be good for the Internet safety because network administrator will find it easy to ban juveniles access to all website with the .xxx domain extension” creation of this new extension will also be good for the domain name industry.
Another webmaster said “the porn domain extension is like the beast in the eagle song hotel California, ICANN just cannot kill the beast”, they have been trying to kill it off for many years but I have a feeling it will be approved this time” he added.
Fingers crossed to see if this contention domain extension will indeed be approved the second time its going for approval by ICANN boards.

There should be legal compulsory to make all porn website and services into dot.xxx domain to make all filtering software easy and website grading system easy.
People are wasting lots of money to invest software intelligent detect and filter porn content. A simple legal binding will help this a lots.
