Nowadays, an increasing number of Americans become sexually active in college, instead of at a younger age.
Universities set the paradigm with regards to research, life, personal relationships and technology, which includes the Internet and domain names.
It’s not strange that the Washington University and the University of Missouri invested $200 per domain, securing their domain names in .xxx from the ICM Registry.
After all, universities have huge budgets for technology and research.
According to an article in the St. Louis Today, the pro-active move was made to protect the University’s name and trademarks from being used for pornography.
The article also uses the mild term “domain prospectors” to describe domain investors. That’s a step up from “cybersquatter” – a term that’s been used left and right by those outside of the domain industry.
It’s great seeing that universities understand how domains and the Internet works, for a change. Now onto the Main Street and Wall Street markets!
