Hey
First of all, wanted to say that my isp was down last night in an upgrade, and that I’ll try again this evening. The changes they are doing are pretty massive, and my presence could be pretty dicey the next couple of days until they are done. And no, Virginia, I cannot post normal stuff now, because I am at work, and I might get funny looks from the woman who has a clear view of my screen.
In the meantime, I need your help on something. I don’t know how closely you guys and gals might follow any of this kind of stuff, but there is a movement afoot to start .xxx domains. They say alot how it will protect children, and all that. We know that parents should be excused of monitoring their children’s net time, and that the government should do it for them. (sarcasm, for those of you in doubt)
What such a thing will do will make it much easier for online porn to be regulated. Say it passes, and I had to change this domain to stunningshemalesblog.xxx And say you live someplace that wants to outlaw porn. They just then block all access to .xxx domains, and you can tell me and my stunning shemales goodbye.
So, if you’ve got some time and want to read more on the issue, do it here. http://www.fightthedotxxx.com
If you don’t want to read more, and you want to keep the net just the way it is, take 5 minutes, write an email, and tell ICANN about it. xxx-tld-agreement@icann.org
After you’ve written your email, you’ll get a confirmation email that you’ll need to click. Your email will then be listed here, http://forum.icann.org/lists/xxx-tld-agreement/ That will help show that thinking individuals believe .xxx to be a bad idea.
Note: When you send the email, only sign it with whatever name you are comfortable being shown on the net, because the name will show up when your email is posted. However, your email address will be blocked out.
For those of you who take the time to do this, it is appreciated. I hate censorship, and I hate the notion that government needs to be a babysitter.
EDIT: ICANN IS MEETING TOMORROW TO DISCUSS THIS. SO IF YOU ARE GOING TO MAIL, PLEASE DO IT NOW!!!
