.NU Domain to sue a firm for its report on web porn

.NU Domain Ltd, the US-based operator of the .nu TLD, announced that it will take legal action against Secure Computing Corp. for making false claims that .nu domain is hosting millions of pages of pornographic material. The company also stated that it will take legal action against anyone who republishes this inaccurate and defamatory study. There are approximately 100,000 .nu domain names currently active, and according to Secure Computing there would be "3 million pages of pornography" (by the way "nu" means "naked" in French!).
