A .xxx domain will not segregate 'smut' besides what is smut? I've never considered nudity or sexual acts between consenting men and women as in any way 'smutty' or 'dirty'. No-one HAS to access pornography and for those who choose to (incidentally a far larger group of people than most self-righteous people will admit) it is far easier and less degrading at free online sites than eg buying an adult magazine at the local or not so local shop! I'm VERY concerned at your use of 'unregulated due to 'embryonic state' '. WHAT NONSENSE... The Internet in its present form has been around for nearly 20 years, rather a grown-up status. Heaven help us if so called do-gooders for power or control reasons of their own had any say in most of the Internet. Basically most free and many paid for 'porn' sites will (sensibly!) choose not to register as .xxx and as many are out of US influence, SO WHAT!
