.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.''
