This post is really starting to make anti-SOPA look like a witch hunt. Why point the finger at startups who use Godaddy's services?
Godaddy itself is just one company on a long list. This attack against Godaddy is nothing but a big distraction from the real issue: fighting SOPA.
- soult 15y agoIsn't that kind of what we want? We want companies to know it is not OK to support SOPA either directly (like Godaddy) or indirectly (like buying domains from GoDaddy), and we want them to know that we will boycott them and actively tell others to boycott them as well.
- superchink 15y agoI don't claim to speak for the OP, but I don't think the point of this list isn't to point the finger at the GoDaddy customers. Instead, it's a helpful reminder to those companies on the list that they still have some services being provided by GoDaddy, so that they can participate in the boycott of a company supporting SOPA. Agreed on your second point. Raising awareness is a great step toward the ultimate goal of fighting SOPA. A mass exodus from a hugely successful supporter of SOPA seems like a good start to me.
