The ICM Registry slimeballs expand to porn search

http://j.mp/TEu0ks  (Computerworld)

    ICM Registry, which operates the 9-month-old .xxx TLD, is scheduled to
    launch Search.xxx on Thursday, said Stuart Lawley, ICM's CEO. The new
    search engine will give users a more streamlined searching process,
    help protect them from viruses and malware and help guard their
    privacy, he said.  The search engine has cataloged 21 million webpages
    from .xxx sites, he said. "It's porn, only porn, all porn," he said.
    "There's as much porn there as anyone would need, I'd imagine."

Just when you think that the slimiest of the gTLD expansion "extortionists"
can't get any slimier -- they do.
