New RFC Considers .sex TLD Dangerous

Posted by michael on from the sex-with-sue-almost-as-dangerous dept.

netcentric writes "A post on CircleID has reported about an RFC prepared by Donald E. Eastlake 3rd and Declan McCullagh, CNET News.com's Washington D.C. correspondent, analyzing proposals from various parties to mandate the use of special top level domain names (such as .sex or .xxx) or an IP address bit to flag 'adult' or 'unsafe' material or the like. The analysis explains why these ideas are dangerous and ill considered from legal, philosophical, and technical points of view. Here is the post to this report on CircleID along with some commentaries and link to the entire RFC 3675."

    Given GWBs much publicised stance on sex/pregnancy/religion , I'm sure this is the first step in outlawing anything even vaguely in the direction of sex-education/family-planning/etc on the grounds that it merely encourages the godless masses to have sex outside of marriage and without intention of producing offspring.

    Essentially it's a move by the religious puritannical few to control the masses of satan-worshipping lustbucket countrymen.

    Then again, this is the United States of America, said contry never having recovered from its heritage of Religious Puritans.

    Seriously people, in some ways America is as much a religious freak as some of those nothing-but-sandy-deserts-and-oil countries that are so muchly in the news these days.
