FSC Urges Stakeholders to Post .XXX Comments

CANOGA PARK, Calif. — The Free Speech Coalition is calling for all online adult business stakeholders to post their comments opposing the .XXX sTLD at the ICANN website. The public comment period ends today.

Comments can be posted via email at xxx-revised-icm-agreement@icann.org.

FSC will post a public comment today, as well as data collected from the call to action survey in which stakeholders were asked to endorse statements of opposition to the proposed sTLD.

FSC asks industry members to go to the survey and add their vote to the industry professionals opposing .XXX. The survey link is here.

“.XXX is a situation where together we stand,” FSC Executive Director Diane Duke said.

“Online business owners who are against .XXX must post comments by the end of the day, in order for their voices to be heard. FSC has spearheaded the opposition to this supposed sponsored domain because the webmasters have told us that they don’t want it.”

Duke added, “.XXX would end up costing webmasters millions in unnecessary fees, if passed and also make it easier for the wrong people to target adult material online, including children and anti-adult activists.”
