ICANN Likely Finally To Approve .xxx For Porn Sites

shmG writes with this from the International Business Times: "The company that oversees Web addresses is expected to give the go-ahead on Friday for the creation of a .xxx suffix for websites with pornographic content, company officials indicated on Thursday. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which oversees the Internet on behalf of the US government, has in the past resisted creating a .xxx generic domain name system akin to those for .com and .net."

    If google.xxx is what I think it would be, it could perhaps be the best website on the Internet.

    Good point. Why does google safe search have a setting that "blocks web pages containing explicit sexual content from appearing in search results" when what I want is a setting that blocks web pages that don't contain explicit sexual content from appearing in search results!
