Two Porn Companies Take ICANN and .xxx Registrar To Court
SharkLaser writes "Two of the largest porn companies on the internet, Manwin and Digital Playground, yesterday sued both ICANN and ICM Registry, which runs the .xxx TLD, over extorting defensive registrations with ICANN's blessing. 'The complaint focuses on ICM's recently concluded "sunrise" period, during which porn companies, for about $200, could apply to own a .xxx address matching their trademark or .com domain.' Schools also felt the same way, and had to reserve domains under their name so that no porn content could be put up on them. The .xxx TLD has also previously been subject to criticism by both religious groups and adult industry, but for different reasons. Religious groups believe the .xxx TLD legitimizes pornography, while the adult industry believes it could lead to censorship."
It's on topic because I'm naked.

I'm all for this. When I put "lindsay lohan boob" into google, I want to filter out all the G, PG, and PG13 results.
I'd still be ok with the results that say "what the hell do you want to see that for?"
Perhaps we'll be able to talk to females when Slashdot.xxx goes live!
Or ladyboys. Everyone likes ladyboys.
Lets say you're making a display, and you want to call yourself 'vivid' because well, you make displays that are vivid. (Or maybe you're HTC making a phone you want to brand that way, same deal) and someone else wants to equally correctly, but in a completely different context brand themselves 'vivid'.
Heh, dude. Vivid entertainment[NSFW] is one of the top porn producers in the United States. Either I've been subtly and cleverly trolled, or you are psychic.
and look forward to the day i can type any randomword.xxx and see something NFSW quickly randomly and easily
She's going to be in an upcoming issue of playboy (and upcoming torrent of images from said issue of playboy). This isn't some teasing cleavage either, it's the trifecta -- boobs, ass and vag.
Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
Yeah but is it real or is it "playboy" real? I've seen waaaay too many issues of playboy where they have used so much airbrushing to cover up any natural curves and folds to where the finished result looks like a Barbie doll with a slit drawn on the crotch. Hell if you only wanted to see her in plastic there is plenty of CGI cartoon crap that will give you any celeb in any pose you want.
as for TFA great for the TLDs, lousy for everyone else. I was wondering if they would pull this "pay us or you may have a porn site in your name" crap and have to wonder if all the talk about having multiple new TLDs isn't just a way to keep the money flowing. I can easily see a day where every time the number of sales drops off they come up with another TLD and pull the same scam, so I really hope the porn guys win this one, sounds to me like a racket.
ACs don't waste your time replying, your posts are never seen by me.
Wasn't she already in Machete completely naked? I recall being pretty upset about having witnessed that. Ugh, skanky!
