It wasn't a bad idea ..the problem is that the existing .com domains used for porn have great commercial value and this would have involved tremendous monetary destruction and all kinds of companies would have objected and had rights to defend.

Businesses should demand it too. Want to stop people from viewing porn at work? Block the .xxx addresses. It could be a boon for parents, as well. Just block all the .xxx sites.

simple really... just give all the porn/smut domain names the new .xxx or .sex ext and then block any new companies from from using those existing names with a .com ext. anything new is fair game.

That's the problem. If .xxx was to co-exist with .com porn, I don't care what happens. But you can't just swipe people's .com addresses and force them to .xxx, particularly when many have put millions of dollars into their sites, content, and brand.
