This whole thing is sooo rediculous. If the intent is to setup the Internet so that porn can easily be filtered out of one's Internet pages, then why are they coming up with all these bogus reasons for killing the project. Either the controller's of the Internet want to filter porn or not. There is no question that forcing porn sites to use a particular domain will work or not, because it will. Under the proposed rule, if a web site operator runs a porn site and is not using the designated domain, after a single report, his domain can be cutoff on the top level servers, removing him from the Internet. Nothing he can do to stop it either. Once all porn was being ran out of a designated domain channel, it would be very easy to filer them out of email, web adds, spam, viruses, etc. The real reason that this got killed is because somebody making the decisions got paid to change their mind.
