I wish GoDaddy would retract their support already, then the internet might realize all this sound and fury over boycotting them is meaningless and a distraction from putting attention on the politicians.
- artmageddon 15y agoThey actually already did: http://www.godaddy.com/newscenter/release-view.aspx?news_item_id=378&isc=smtwsup http://www.godaddy.com/newscenter/release-view.aspx?news_ite... I still say people should withdraw their domains from GoDaddy regardless of their stance on SOPA. It's bad enough that they already did support it, but other entities who do support it need to realize that people won't put up with this kind of crap.
- alexqgb 15y agoNo - you have to pay attention to both parties in the economy of corruption. Focusing on one (regardless of which you chose) is an invitation for your target to blame the other side of the coin. Shifting your attention to the flip-side causes the same play to reverse itself. Heads they win, tails you lose. Only by attacking both at the same time can you hope to get the best of the situation. Lessing refers to this as ignoring the branches, and concentrating on the root instead. In this case, it's the system of private campaign finance that connects both parties.
