If .XXX goes into effect then corporations with $100,000s and even $1,000,000s of dollars will register domains in groves within the first hour of availability or even before it's they're available to the general public. Then if we want the .XXX version of our own domains, then we'll have to fight them in court. Sure we can trade mark the names that we've spent year promoting but someone else will have the .XXX version until we win it back in court. Most webmasters won't have enough money to get a US, Candian and International trademark on every .com they own much less fight it in court against a compnay backed with big bucks.

Suddenly Internet porn will be controlled by just a few. A few that will donate heavily to the party that allowed them to steal other people's hard work.
