Saudi Arabia has opposed the creation of various top-level domains, including .gay. The nation's Communications and Information Technology Commission declared that URLs ending in .gay would be offensive because homosexuality can be objectionable to nations' "culture, morality or religion." The commission has filed an official objection with ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. Last year, ICANN announced that it would allow the suffixes of Web addresses to go beyond the standard ones like.com, .org, .gov, and so on.
