Senate Approves Censored .kids.us Domain

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the barney-and-teletubbies-considered-safe dept.

lostchicken writes "The Senate has approved the first viable "kid-friendly" system that doesn't try to control the Internet. See the story here. It is an opt-in system that allows a .kids.us domain to be pointed at a site approved as safe, as opposed to an adult only domain type system."

    That's a great idea, having other kids.tlds. That way, we can have a goatse.kids.cx

    I don't know who chose the domain 'kids' but goat-related domain names do not always have a spotless record...

    goat.se.kids.us?

    The title of the story mentions "censored" which in itself is BAD, right? but slashdot seems to be rather positive about it.

    so what opinion should i have now?! could anyone please help?
    it would be cool if the stories on slashdot made it easier to get an appropriate slashdot-like opinion.
