'Becomes' is an understatement. It seems to have been patently obvious to people who understand the Internet for many years that this wasn't going to achieve anything beyond the establishment of a new registry for people to sell domains in, yet a combination of the greedy and the ignorant meant it was always likely to actualy happen. We all know that the sites selling adult content aren't likely to give up their existing .com domains. That sites containing user-submitted content that some would view as porn but which would themselves claim otherwise - RedBubble springs to mind - definitely aren't going to be interested in shifting to .xxx and that there will be a group campaigning for their own personal definition to be used in requiring people to move. And that sites containing, for example, material on sexual health or abortion are going to be pressured in some regions to shift to .xxx. The domain solves nothing well and creates so very many problems. This whole issue was a very predictable problem from day one and I wish ICANN had had the courage to stand up for good sense and not grant the new TLD.
