[AfrICANN-discuss] Comments on .xxx

[Vincent Ocran]

I think ICCAN is over blowing this issue with .xxx if we are going to have
an open and transparent Internet then ICCAN and the community should allow
the .xxx

Regulation of contents operated by TLD xxx will naturally be taken over and
controlled by various sovereign nation government as the see fit with in
their boarders. ICAAN should not be acting as the Internet´s moral high
priest and policeman/woman for adult content. What I gathered from the board
meeting, members were voting based on the their moral and national
interpretation.
