Sandy, UT | GoDaddy is good for something! GoDaddy is good for something. I got spam from a domain registered at GoDaddy after one of the last public snafu's with them and emailed them about the domain. They pulled the registration the next day.
It was quite satisfying. | |

West Boylston, MA | we should all call godaddy and tell them we want the site!
Personally I think its great to ratemycop.
If you go to the site it says to call them if you're the owner. We should call and demand it be turned back on.

| Re: Calm down and read this In this case it was... The only reason the spin that this story got had any momentum was the fact that, in the fact, GoDaddy has pulled registrations on sites to censor material.

Godaddy pulled the domain of a security list simply for MIRRORING another security list where a list of username and passwords was posted. The irony is that other sites also had mirrored that list... | |

Chicago, IL | Too Much Publicity With all the hits the site got whoever decides to host it will automatically get in line to receive the publicity.
I bet them hackers with itchy fingers are dieing to set up redirects to spyware websites. | |

But in the business world, there are other considerations, like reliability, availability and service levels. In a business situation. I'd probably inform my customers about news reports of Godaddy's actions, and caution them that if they use this vendor's service that their web presence and associated business functions could be interrupted at GoDaddy's sole discretion without notice per their universal TOS.
Then I'd give the customer at least three alternative vendors and let them make their own decision on a hosting and domain services provider.
A handy reference is this paragraph; GoDaddy's Universal TOS , Section 5 paragraph 3 as of Fri Mar 15 2008.
said by Universal terms of service :
If You have purchased Services, Go Daddy has no obligation to monitor Your use of the Services. Go Daddy reserves the right to review Your use of the Services and to cancel the Services in its sole discretion. Go Daddy reserves the right to terminate Your access to the Services at any time, without notice, for any reason whatsoever.
Link here.
Now there's a commitment to customer service I won't forget, and neither would my customers if somebody at the vendor's office arbitrarily decides to take them offline.
