.xxx Registrar To Launch Pr0n Search Engine

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday September 26, 2012 @04:32PM from the tryin-to-catch-me-searching-dirty dept.

angry tapir writes "The company behind the .xxx top-level domain plans to launch a search engine in an effort to drive more traffic to .xxx websites and give pornography fans a more satisfying search experience. ICM Registry, which operates the 9-month-old .xxx TLD, is scheduled to launch Search.xxx this week, said Stuart Lawley, ICM's CEO. The new search engine will give users a more streamlined searching process, help protect them from viruses and malware and help guard their privacy, he said. The search engine has cataloged 21 million webpages from .xxx sites, he said. 'It's porn, only porn, all porn,' he said. 'There's as much porn there as anyone would need, I'd imagine.'"

  Hmm, I wonder. You see, the porn industry has been complaining for a long time about hard times (yes, I know, a pun of sorts, but not intended). I think the truth of the matter is that pornography only really attracts those who have been unable to find anything better in their lives, which is really sad.

I am, by the way, from Denmark, where people are incredibly open-minded and at it all the time, everywhere, as we all know, so I know what I am talking about.
  Sex is nice, but vastly overhyped. Like anything enjoyable, it becomes trivial when you have had enough, and that happens much sooner than you imagine as a teenager; and it's a good thing really, because there is so much more to life than screwing around.

That's all there is to it. Why pay to see tits or cock when there are hundreds of thousands of people with cameras posting it to the net for free? Better yet, the amateur stuff isn't all in front of studio lighting, doesn't have makeup artists or photoshop touchups, so doesn't look all plasticky.

  I believe it is intentional.
  From Wikipedia
  Pr0n is slang for pornography.[1] This is a deliberately inaccurate spelling/pronunciation for porn,[14] where a zero is often used to replace the letter O. It is sometimes used in legitimate communications (such as email discussion groups, Usenet, chat rooms, and internet web pages) to circumvent language and content filters, which may reject messages as offensive or spam. The word also helps prevent search engines from associating commercial sites with pornography, which might result in unwelcome traffic.

The post you link to seems to make the claim that this isn't news worthy inherently because it was told to her in the form of a press release, which makes very little sense. Any real journalist would consider the story objectively, and if they disagreed with the company's standards which she seems to do write a negative post about it. Which she did. So was she suckered in then? After all, her entire post is about that very same press release.
Whether the story is newsworthy or not is a completely different issue, and you'll notice it's one she doesn't touch. Clearly she deems it news worthy since she actually posted about it, but she wants to do so in a negative way so she tries to cast a negative light on anyone else who didn't agree with her. That doesn't exactly smack of journalistic integrity, now does it?
I should perhaps note that I completely agree with her opinions on the .xxx tld and so on, but that post just made me chuckle, it's not even worth taking seriously. After all, it's based on a press release.
