    1. Gopal Tadepalli

      Michael Palage Justine Chew 

      Thank you for the discussion on .XXX moving to gTLD during the CPWG call on 17 April 2024.

      Wayback in 2003 - 2004, my University server was hacked and clearly objectional content was pushed into the network. Just a three member team including me was entrusted with the task of pl,ugging this. We did it with minimum embarassments and blushes by writing our own monitors and being on the vigil. The University did not has a sophisticated security related stacks and it was easire for us to write our own localised monitors.

      Having a TLD such as .XXX domaiin makes the job easier by blocking at the TLD. The content delivery can still happen through the network memory. ..XXX being a sponsored TLD is not likely to do better by fixing the ownership with the sponsor. Making it a gTLD is a better option for the stakeholders.

      I think making .XXX a gTLD is welcome.

      • Dr. T V Gopal
