Go Daddy Drops SOPA Support After Boycott Threat
- Thread starter vansau
- Start date
I second the Let Them Burn mentality.
Go Daddy may simply lying through their teeth at the moment and still do fully support the bill, but no longer openly. I am sure they are only telling us what we want to hear at this point and if we believe them it will only encourage more companies to lie right to our face. If we let them crash right now, completely, it will stand as a warning to any other Internet company that thinks it can shit all over the users.
We won't stand for it and if we catch you doing it: We won't forgive.

Backlash awaaaaaaaay!
Come on internet, prove your freedom is more important than your tendency to go with the flow due to apathy/laziness!

I still say the customers should switch over to GoDaddy's rivals. I want to see how Go Daddy will try harder for next superbowl ad.
I still don't trust them. They backed down because it suits their business not because they believe SOPA is wrong. Every business that believes SOPA is the way to go deserves to go bankrupt. Every single last one of them.
You win +10 Internets for this, sir.Me55enger said:
While I ultimately agree to their shift in alignment with the SOPA thing.
I do not agree with the terms in which they did it. They switched sides as soon as their users started leaving? Seems a bit of a last ditch effort to me, they abandon their morals as soon as they get a little less site traffic.
SOPA is horrible...

I don't know if I should be proud of this, or ashamedRaiyan 1.0 said:See? Bitching on the internet WORKS!
Something tells me it's too little too late. They've pissed a lot of people off with their support and now that they're backing down, although good, shows weakness on their part.
They can change their position as many times as they like. What they don't realize is the first choice is what does the damage. And damage takes time to heal. If they were willing to put that little amount of thought into what they were doing. Then I'll return the favor and possibly think about them again in a decade or so. Just for old time's sake.
Meh, a simple apology's not good enough, especially when it's so obviously transparent.
No, for being stupid enough to publicly support SOPA in the first place GoDaddy needs to continue to be punished, all the way to bankruptcy if possible.
Maybe that'll send a message to the idiots who support SOPA.
"Yes, we will bankrupt a company if it supports this bill, what now bitches!?"
