Why .xxx When ICANN Continues TLD Scarcity?
ICANNWatch.org has posted a defense of ICANN's approval of the ".xxx" top-level domain (.xxx Approval a Positive Sign). However, I agree with the dissenting comments from Michael Froomkin:
I think if we had a world where every reasonable proposal got a number and got in the queue, I'd agree with you Milton. And that's the best of all possible worlds. But in this world of needless rationing, I don't see why the insides like Palage should vault to the head of the queue over others. Nor do I see why this proposal is better than many others.
As well as
Karl Auerbach:
As long as ICANN maintains the artificial scarcity then it is indeed appropriate to pick and chose those who will receive the grant based on what they will do. And purvaying porn isn't something that deserves to be placed first - it deserves to come the end of the queue.
