.KIDS Domains Inc. Chairman, H. Page
Howe Testifies Before House Subcommittee Regarding the Dot Kids Domain
Name Act of 2001
ENCINITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS
WIRE)--Nov. 1, 2001--.KIDS Domains Inc. (KDI), chairman and founder H.
Page Howe testified today before the House Subcommittee on
Telecommunications and the Internet.
The subcommittee hearing focused on
H.R. 2417, the Dot Kids Domain Name Act of 2001.
Howe testified in favor of the creation
of a safe haven for children on the Internet. KDI (www.kidsdomains.org)
is the registry operator for .kids, the only network of Web sites
whose owners and operators have agreed to restrict their content.
In his testimony to the Subcommittee
Howe said, ``A registry of .kids domain addresses will help those
institutions and parents who want to, and have the right to, make
choices for children. In addition, by educating and building a
community of content providers who are delivering content specifically
for children, children are empowered to make their own choices at the
keyboard level. Today's youth will become empowered to seek out the
wonderful educational, entertainment oriented, and communication
experiences the World Wide Web has to offer.''
Howe added, ``We are here because we
can and have created this .kids community.''
