[Jason Hendeles is involved with the current application for .xxx, which I wrote about here (http://news.com.com/2010-1026-5176611.html). --Declan] -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Politech] Weekly column: the battle over .xxx [fs] Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2004 11:03:24 EST From: MarkKernes@private To: declan@private In a message dated 3/23/04 1:17:18 AM, declan@private writes: << By the end of this year, Internet users could have an extraordinarily convenient place to find pornography: a new .xxx top-level domain. >> A guy named Jason Hendeles approached the Free Speech Coalition (the trade association of the adult entertainment industry) last year to support his own plan for a .xxx TLD; he even offered to cut us in with a seat on the domain's governing board and a ($) piece of each application. We rejected the idea, since it will *inevitably* lead to ghettoization of not only hardcore sites, but everything currently in question under the COPA case. Filters exist; let those worried about porn use them! Mark Kernes, AVN "Some play the game.
