The board of directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers approved the creation of .xxx internet domains on Friday.
Some religious groups fear this gives pornography makers and users their own neighborhood on the internet thus legitimizing the content.
Applicants for the domain will have to go through a process designed to discourage criminality.
The fight over this issue has been going on for over a decade. I guess if the adult industry doesn't like it, it's a good thing.

Diane Duke, executive director of the adult entertainment industry's Free Speech Coalition (FSC), said in a statement that ICANN has "disregarded overwhelming outpouring of opposition from the adult entertainment industry" and dismissed the "interests of free speech on the Internet."
