On Friday, the board of directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which oversees the Internet's naming system, approved the creation of an online red-light district for pornographic websites with the domain ".xxx," AP reports.

It follows a decade-long battle over such a name. Religious groups argue that giving adult websites their own corner of the Internet legitimizes the content. Pornographers worry that governments could try to mandate the domain's use, so that pornographic content is more easily blocked. Supporters have maintained that approving the domain is in keeping with the principle of openness that has fueled the Internet's growth.

色情網(wǎng)站獲專(zhuān)用域名

?????? 據(jù)美聯(lián)社報(bào)道，周五，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)名稱(chēng)與數(shù)字地址分配機(jī)構(gòu)的董事會(huì)批準(zhǔn)用“.xxx”域名為色情網(wǎng)站開(kāi)辟網(wǎng)上紅燈區(qū)。此機(jī)構(gòu)監(jiān)管著互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的命名機(jī)制。

?????? 有關(guān)此域名的論戰(zhàn)已持續(xù)了10年之久。宗教團(tuán)體認(rèn)為，為成人網(wǎng)站在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上開(kāi)辟一塊專(zhuān)用地可使色情內(nèi)容合法化。色情業(yè)界人士則擔(dān)心政府會(huì)強(qiáng)制使用該域名，這樣的話，情色內(nèi)容更容易被禁。支持人士則認(rèn)為，批準(zhǔn)該域名與推動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)成長(zhǎng)的開(kāi)放性原則一致。
