.xxx registry sues US government

An anonymous reader writes in to say that "ICM Registry LLC, the company behind the proposed .xxx internet porn domain, is to sue two departments of the US government for access to documents it claims show the US pressured ICANN into rejecting the domain. The Florida-based startup will sue the Department of Commerce and the Department of State to get them to release documents that they redacted when they responded to a Freedom Of Information Act request that ICM filed last year."

Why?! This .xxx registry is a big waste of space

First of all, who cares if the US pressured them into rejecting the domain.

Secondly, if .xxx sites get registered it'll make it even EASIER for kids to find porn now. Why would parents want to make it easier? EVERY kid knows what XXX means, and there's tons of free porn that would be hosted on these sites. A lot of kids have a fun time looking at previews of pay sites as well.

I agree with the rejection of .xxx, nor would I really care if it got approved.

I think they should allow .xxx and disallow porn in other tlds. In this way there will be a better control over porn on internet. I mean child porn and other disgusting things.
