“Canon First in Line for Its Own Top-Level Domain, .canon”

But after religious groups in the U.S. protested, the U.S. government threatened to keep .XXX out of the net’s root file, which would force a showdown over ICANN’s independence. (The Commerce Department approves the root file every day, though that’s usually a formality).

I had not paid that much attention to the .xxx fiasco, and had no idea the U.S. government had an influence that direct on the internet’s TLDs. It’s just unacceptable.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
