.XXX – why we wont have anything to do with this iniquitous TLD

The new .XXX top level domain (TLD), which has been created specifically to offer a domain for porn, is about to become generally available after a sunrise period during which trademark owners have been encouraged to either register their domain under this TLD or to register (and pay for) a block to prevent someone else doing so.

UKFSN will not offer this TLD. The reason we wont is very simple – the .XXX business model is essentially a form of extortion.

Whether you believe that porn is iniquitous or not extortion certainly is so I have decided UKFSN wont have anything to do with it.
