[ NNSquad ] Big Porn v. Big Web Ruling Could Spell Trouble for ICANN


Big Porn v. Big Web Ruling Could Spell Trouble for ICANN

http://j.mp/MHusKS  (Litigation Daily / Law.com) [Gotta love the name, "Litigation Daily"]

   "U.S. District Judge Philip Gutierrez partly granted motions to dismiss
    filed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the
    nonprofit organization in charge of the domain name system, and ICM
    Registry, LLC, the registry running the .xxx domain. But the judge
    allowed the plaintiffs to pursue their core claims that ICANN and ICM
    were running what amounts to a shakedown of the adult industry,
    forcing website operators to defensively seek .xxx addresses to
    protect their brands."
