Right, the discussion was around what bits of the internet should be a common carrier
This would essentially prevent godaddy from limiting service to a customer because they would be required to work with all peoples
My argument, was that yes, I agree that some things should be governed more like public utilities, like ISPs. Other things should not, like CDNs, or DDOS protection, etc.
IMO once you have internet, that is what is obligated to be made available to you, all these other services might help you but they are private companies that can refuse service for any reason
Anyway, I doubt this discussion continues as the topic is stale now, but I wanted to clarify my comment regarding where the line was. I wasn't talking about morality of issues, I was talking about where common carrier status should start / stop
