jmiller,
How do you plan on getting all the adult webmasters around the world to keep porn off of .com and .net? We cant stop spam and phishing and there is far less money driving those industries.
Pandora’s box has been opened already and no way will all the evil creatures go back in the .com box willingly.
Would you be happy with your kid watching a real beheading, people crushing puppies to death or setting them on fire, or some other cruel vile video or still photograph that are all throughout the web? How about how to build a bomb? Bet you can find that on the web!
The .kids can be monitored to be porn, hate, violence free...a true kids safe zone. Nickelodeon has news and it does not show napalmed villages in Vietnam or jumpers from the twin towers, it shows kids safe programming geared towards children.
If the move must be made, some dot com names (some of which are hundreds of thousands of dollars) would be worthless – unless who ever own the DOT COM gets first right of refusal on the DOT XXX then again what about the DOT NET names?
If you look at the economies of the internet from a truly unbiased angle you will see that the adult industry is one of the most driving forces in the internet economy and has been since day 1.
I can guarantee that the internet would not have the advances nor the penetration that it has (no pun intended) without the money and the effort from the adult industry which is funded by many of your neighbors.
