.XXX Approved! A red light district for the internet? Urban legends; Sex data bases.

.XXX has been approved.
A few days ago, ICANN -- the quasi-government corporation that oversees the internet’s naming and numbering system, approved the .XXX top level domain. .XXX will operate much like .COM does now -- meaning it will be a domain name people can type into their browsers to take them to a website -- but similar to the way .GOV is reserved for governmental organizations, .XXX will be reserved for pornographic or adult content websites.

Current expectations are that .XXX will be available for purchase and use by year’s end.

Hmmm. Actually as fas as I remember I`ve heard that .xxx has been designed to prevent children accessing such sites and fight against then and not providing domains for them.
Did they change their minds???
