I've been with GoDaddy for years. People who blame them for their SOPA stance need to remember there was a lot of support in Congress for SOPA. Was it the best Bill? Nah, that doesn't mean GoDaddy's reputation should be torn to shreds every single time their name comes up on HN. The same people should remember there are a lot of good people at GoDaddy, techies just like them who are trying to earn a living doing a job they love.
- mitchty 13y agoPeople have other valid reasons for not liking GoDaddy that don't involve SOPA. Domain transfer blocking being one of many. There may be good people at GoDaddy, just like there are good people at the NSA. Doesn't mean we can't have an opinion of the organization in aggregate that is not overall positive. Why are you so concerned with how GoDaddy is perceived as an organization?

- jebblue 13y agoI've got some domains with GoDaddy, that's it. Does that make it ok for you to make an unfounded and wrong accusation? edit: Adding a reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill
- TeMPOraL 13y agoThe HN's hate for GoDaddy doesn't just stem from the SOPA case. GoDaddy is a very shady business in general, and every now and then some of the borderline evil stuff they do hits the news.
