.xxx Rejected
ICANN, the U.S.-based corporation that assigns Internet domain names, rejected the designation ".xxx" earlier this month under pressure from conservative American lawmakers. What do you think?
Frank Schwarz,
Eye Surgeon
"I'm glad they rejected it. It's not specific enough. What we need are designations like .asian or .shaved so we can really get what we're after."
Jerry Henderson,
Policeman
"This will only hinder the online advertising for my cartoon jugs of hillbilly moonshine."
Heather Donnely,
Shoemaker's Assistant
"If you can tell me a three-letter combination out there that isn't sexually suggestive, I'd love to hear it."
