With 216,260 views on Wednesday, 2 September 2026 our article of the day is .xxx.
.xxx is a sponsored top-level domain (sTLD) intended as a voluntary option for pornographic websites on the Internet. This option enables website operators to establish a web address like example.xxx instead of example.com. The sponsoring organization is the International Foundation for Online Responsibility (IFFOR). The domain name registry for .xxx was initially operated by ICM Registry. The board of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the nonprofit that manages several technical aspects of the Internet including the list of top-level domains, approved the .xxx registry agreement with ICM Registry in March 2011. The first .xxx websites went into operation in April 2011.
