We've never focused any of our business in China with intention. I didn't want our company to acquise and sell it's soul to do business there so we purposely avoided it all these years. We may have some customers there but no

If we were virtue signaling we wouldn't willingly be giving up a not non significant part of our business. This hurts us financially but it's the right thing to do, at least for us. Your leader/country is already killing inno

Sure but I don't want our company to be a factor in that contribution. I'm sure there are plenty of others out there willing to take the money and provide these services. If there are anti-government non profits out there, We'

We haven't blocked the domains, we are asking people to move. There are plenty of other choices out there when it comes to infrastructure services so this isn't "deplatforming". I sympathize with people that are not pro

Is it not enough that Facebook and Zuck tread all over their customers privacy on their own platform? Now they want other companies to do it for them with their own customers as well. This is just another attack on privacy and due process i

From our side, we do not, nor have we ever monitored and registered our customer's domain searches. The easiest way to test this is to try and replicate it. I've seen similar complaints pop up from time to time and I've even

Thank you and I'm sorry to hear that you left us. Please do try and check back with us at some point. I believe you'll see a difference in our approach to how we do things and the decisions we make going forward.

While we still have some gaps around GDPR we have active workstreams to close them. We've also rolled out free privacy protection to all of our customers, not just those in the EU. I can also say that we've always been extremely c

No excuses, you're right, we made a bad decision then and losing customers like you was the consequence of that. I apologize for that and any other negative experiences you may have had with us due to this.

Hello Fej, to be honest, we signed an exclusive contract with Comodo before Let's Encrypt even existed. The length of that contract is ten years. It's put us in a tough situation as far as what we can offer out of the box to our c

Honestly, we seriously dropped the ball trying something new. It was a mistake on my part and a bad decision looking back. I posted about it on our blog here https://www.namecheap.com/blog/true-totp-2fa-and-u2f-are-com.
