Taylor Swift Porn? ‘1989’ Singer Buys Adult Site Domain Names!

Haters gonna hate, but Taylor Swift is actually very savvy for a businesswoman her age.

According to CNN Money, the internet has expanded its number of generic top level domains (gTLDs), from the basics like .com, .net, and .org, to more repugnant ones that include .sucks, .port, and .adult.

With the addition of theses more distasteful dTLDs, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers invited companies and individuals to register in these domains before everyone else can come June 1, when it opens to the public, and hopefully, before the trolls get to them.

Among the people who bought her own domain name in these gTLDs is Taylor Swift, who purchased domain names TaylorSwift.porn and TaylorSwift.adult, so nobody else could capitalize on them later.

This isn't the first time that the singer took matters into her own hands regarding Internet banalities, as Metro UK reported that she previously bought ITaughtTaylorSwiftHowToGiveHead.com. This came during a dispute with her lawyers when Tay's former guitar teacher, Ronnie Cremer set up the website ITaughtTaylorSwift.com.

Claiming infringement on the Taylor Swift trademark, her team bought all variations of "I Taught Taylor Swift" to ensure that nobody will follow the steps of Cremer.

However, on the case of the dTLDs, another company that went ahead to grab the controversial ones is Microsoft, who, according to
The Hollywood Reporter, snatched up Office.porn and Office.adult.

ICANN claimed that the program to expand existing dTLDs is beneficial to all internet users, because "descriptive domains, such as .healthcare, .deals, and .amsterdam, help ensure Web users arrive at their intended destination." With today's competitive e-lifestyle, these dTLDs will also provide businesses and groups more unique addresses to set up their sites.

Steve Miholovich from domain registrar and advisory firm, Safenames said, "At the end of the day, a TLD is really a brand,"

However, not every corporation is thinking like Tay in terms of acquiring domain names, as many of them don't want to be associated with anything negative. Miholovich explained, "They want positive images -- they want positive messages. They're not going to turn [.sucks] into a positive."

He also said, "People who have bad intentions are going to do what they're going to do and there's nothing to prevent that." In the end, he suggested that companies should look into their brands to determine the ones that need protection.

Do you think Taylor Swift made the right move as per Miholovich's advice?
