Porn Fight: Manwin says it won’t do business with .xxx domain names
Posted by – December 3, 2011
Porn site operator follows up anti-trust suit with competitive threat.
Porn purveyor Manwin has taken its battle against the .xxx domain name a step further following its antitrust lawsuit: it’s not going to have anything to do with sites that use the new top level domain.
That’s according to a post on XBIZ this afternoon.
According to the article:
Manwin, with the announcement, has banned all activity between its brands and Internet sites registered with a .XXX TLD, including advertising for .XXX websites on its tube sites. In addition, Manwin said it won’t permit its content to be used or advertised on .XXX websites.
.XXX registry ICM Registry CEO Stuart Lawley smarted back:
“Apparently Manwin is confused about whether it wants to bring antitrust claims or commit antitrust violations,” according to the article.
Manwin runs Playboy sites as a licensee and says it gets 60 million daily visitors across its network of sites.
I find it surprising that Manwin is just now making a full force attack on .xxx. The only real coordinated opposition to the domain as it worked its way through the last legs of the ICANN process was a poorly represented Free Speech Coalition (FSC). I bet they’re wondering where the heck Manwin was through all that.

Apple gets control over porn domain names
Posted by – November 22, 2011
Owner of domain names agrees to give domain names to Apple after company filed complaint.
Apple is now the proud owner of iphonesex4s.com and six other (mostly) explicit domain names.
The company filed a complaint with World Intellectual Property Forum against the owner of the seven domain names last month. All of the domain names forwarded to a mobile porn site when visited on a mobile device.
Apple terminated the case after the owner of the domains agreed to turn the domain names over. The whois record for the domains changed to brand protection company MarkMonitor today:
When the case was filed the domain ownership information was protected by whois privacy. This was later removed to disclose an Israeli company owned the domain names.
The seven domain names are:
iphonecamforce.com
iphonecam4s.com
iphoneporn4s.com
iphonesex4s.com
iphonexxxforce.com
iphone4s.com
porn4iphones.com
I wouldn’t expect Apple to resolve any of the domain names except for iPhone4s.com. [update: some readers have pointed out that the names still forward to the porn sites. The nameservers still point to the old source, so Apple/MarkMonitor need to change these ASAP.]
