New Domains?
Well, some people want them.
According to this article on Australian IT, there are several goups lobbying for new top level domain names to be added by ICANN. Among them were “.asia”, “.cat”, “.jobs”, “.mail”, “.post”, “.tel”, “.travel”, and “.xxx”. The “.xxx” domain was sponsored by the International Foundation for Online Responsibility, who are hoping it will encourage the adoption of the suffix among the “responsible online adult-entertainment community”. That’s a noble idea, but somehow, I doubt that it will come about.
After all, these are the same scum-sucking bottom feeders that send so much pornographic junk e-mail to us, so I really doubt that they’ll volunteer for controls and segregation. But, one can hope.
