Godaddy goes Sopa.

I hope Satguys is being hosted from a different domain host other than Godaddy.

I moved my domain to namecheap.

 

[isaacmorseMI]

Nope. SatGuys is registered with GoDaddy. I have all my domains with them. I am strongly against SOPA I just don't want to pay just to move all my domains to a different registar.

Small price to pay vs losing a whole lot.

I guess I am lost at what Godaddy has to due with SOPA

 

[Bodo Fenrirsson]

I thought that GoDaddy backed down from supporting SOPA because of a boycott against them for supporting SOPA.

 

[JAG72]

They did. That is why I am confused at this thread.

Go Daddy No Longer Supports SOPA

The statement godaddy released is half assed.

They can change their stance anytime and I do not trust their CEO.

True. But I'm not going to pay 33 bucks to transfer 4 of my domains (The 5th one isn't old enough yet).

The place you moved your domain to can also change their mind at anytime.

I kinda doubt that considering they donated $64,180 to the Electronic Frontier Foundation to help stop SOPA.

you never know. Any company can decide that they have made a mistake and reverse course.

Moved this to Chit Chat, and a warning..... once this turns into a discussion of the politics of SOPA, it will get shut down.

You do know you guys are hypocrites? Maybe you shouldn't participate in this sopa thing, because its technically GULP, heres that "P Word" POLITICAL! Im just pointing this out.

I looked at moving off Go Daddy, but we have about 40 domains registered with them and most of the dns is controlled by them and not on our own dns servers (it's easier that way) so the expense and the pain in moving them all at once would have been to great.

I was going to move our main domain but by they they did their about face.

But with that said I will consider moving some of them when it's time to renew.
