Taylor Swift Bought All the Porn Domains with Her Name in Them


Fox NewsTaylor Swift went shopping, and she bought all the porn domains with her name. Her recent purchases aren’t as out of the blue as one might think, however. And no, she’s not considering any sort of professional career change.
The singer is now the proud owner of porn domain sites like TaylorSwift.porn and TaylorSwift.adult and the likes in an attempt to beat the Internet trolls (aka pornographers who want to capitalize on her name, brand and image) to the punch.
You see, Swift is hoarding the registered names before .porn, .sucks and et cetera become available for purchase by the public on June 1.
GossipCop notes: “The move is not to prevent potential Swift nudes from being posted as no such pictures exist, but to stop her highly-trafficked name from being used by those who want to make money off online porn in general.”
What she’s planning on doing with her new domain names, if anything, is unknown. 
The news comes just two months after a hacker threatened to leak alleged nude photos of the 25-year-old. 


Not much to say here. You're allowed to buy domain names, so why not buy up all the porn sites with your name in the domains? Not really sure what you do with them after you buy them, but it doesn't seem like a big deal to me. How does she turn taylorswift.porn into something positive though? Like you buy that domain and you have to keep it like that or else someone else will just create it again, right? I don't really understand how the internet works but that's what it seems like to me. Unless the whole point is for people to just see taylorswift.porn and not click on it because they know Taylor Swift owns the site and nothing pornographic will actually be on there. Not really sure. 
To me, this is basically Taylor Swift taunting us all with how much money she has. Oh, you wanted to create a porn site with my name in the domain? Naaah, I'll just buy it from you. Cause I don't really see how anything else comes of this. Just Tay owning a bunch of sites that won't get used I guess. Probably just needed to spend a little cash before she hits the tour this summer and makes a billion dollars.
