SOPA and GoDaddy

Moonliner · 12-24-2011, 07:37 AM

Hopefully by now you have heard about SOPA. The governments attempt to create a law allowing big media to censor parts of the Internet they don't like.

Which as far as anyone can tell is pretty much any website that allows user generated content. That of course includes the LoT. Google, Facebook and a host of others have voiced opposition to SOPA

But while opposition to SOPA is strong it also has it's supporters. An important protest against one of these companies is coming up December 29th. Leave GoDaddy Day. Which has been prompted by the vocal support of SOPA by the CEO of the domain registration company Godaddy.com. While he has since recounted under duress it's clear the companies interest still lies with big media.

I would urge anyone with any domains registered with GoDaddy to participate and switch on Dec 29th. Here is a handy how to leave GoDaddy guide from Lifehacker.com
