All,

  Looks as though institutional/religion based preasure has 
beaten down Craigs list and cowered them into 'Censoring' their 
adult content links/section.  Censorship has raised it's ugly head
in America, how shocking!?  Will ICANN's dot X-X-X Tld's domain
names face similar preasure?  Will/do fast tracked IDN TLD's domain
names or ccTLD's also face similar institutional/religious based 
preasure from the US vis a vis our UN representative or DOC/NTIA
and/or other religion based special interest groups?  Yes, and
I would say those that aren't already, will be...
