I'm sorry, but hosting a domain for a production site on godaddy is just... childish incompetence. If you have a real business, pay for a registrar who will call you. And keep calling until a human is reached.
I'm sure it's a holdover, and it sucks for the eng at backblaze scrambling to fix this. But still. As someone else is sure to point out, you use MarkMonitor or similar.

- x0x0 6y agoIt sure looks like you're trying to make this about some cancel blah blah nonsense, when it's not at all. It's simple: backblaze used a consumer-grade registrar for their ostensibly business domain. That consumer-grade registrar got probably a spurious complaint -- or maybe even a real one! -- and gave backblaze their full $12/year worth of service backblaze paid for. In contrast, a business-grade registrar won't take domains down for a handful of complaints, and will aggressively work to contact someone inside their customer.
