Video After The Jump
Taylor Swift is on a mission to prevent internet trolls and smut peddlers from using her name to sell XXX material online.
CNN reports that the singer has just bought the domain names Taylorswift.porn and TaylorSwift.adult. This comes after a 2011 decision by Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers to expand top-level domains, or gTLDs, such as .com and .net.
The number of gTLDs have increased from 22 to to over 547. Companies and anyone else who don't want their brand associated with .porn, .adult or .suck have a small window that lasts until June 1st to grab the domains before they hit the open market.
"It's first to the buzzer [then]," said Stuart Lawley, CEO of ICM Registry, which operates the .porn and .adult top-level domains.
Microsoft has moved quickly and snapped up Office.porn and Office.adult.
One month ago Swift also purchased ITaughtTaylorSwiftHowToGiveHead.com.
