In fact, ICM claims they have locked 15,000 .xxx domains. They are not only celebrities, but also domains that could have been offensive — like cities or religious figures like Mohammed — and some premium names that they want to auction later.
The celebrities include politicians like Sarah Palin and Barack Obama, musicians like Beyonce and Lady Gaga, or actors like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. It even has dead celebrities like Amy Winehouse and Marilyn Monroe — or celebrities who have returned to their native planets after their stay on Earth, like Elvis.

The company is planning to cash extra on corporations. While people would be able to register their domains for $US100, companies who want their names excluded from the internet’s red light district would have to pay between $US200 to $US650. Well played, ICM, well played. [The Registry via Slashdot]


















So... is "Tony Abbott" still a viable option for a .xxx domain name?
Stupid. Two people can have the same name.
The saddest camper after all this ... is Sarah Palin.
It seems that all that money spent on her rack was for nothing. :(
You do realise that isn't really Sarah Palin?
