I’m a GoDaddy.com customer, and I see that there’s a boycott on<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Maxwell sez, “Following GoDaddy’s announcement backing the controversial Stop Online Piracy Act and Protect IP Act, many customers have started to move their domains to other hosts. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’ve seen people on my technical Twitter feed chirping about the same thing. But you know what? They’re boycotting Go Daddy in part because they don’t like the television commercials.<\/p>\n

I’ve got 60 domains (I am consistent: I hoard in the physical world, I hoard in the digital world), 8 hosting accounts, and a couple WordPress and Joomla installations. I’m too lazy to move them all to make a point.<\/p>\n

Also, I’m consistent. I’m not going to Make A Stand and boycott one<\/em> unpopular-to-the-cool-people company supporting SOPA but continue to support dozens of other companies that do (Official list of SOPA supporters includes the X-Men, bible publishers & country music<\/a>). For your convenience, I’ve posted the complete list from the House Judiciary in text below the fold.<\/p>\n

Happy boycotting.<\/p>\n

And remember, if you’re only boycotting Go Daddy, you’re not making a political stand; you just don’t like Go Daddy.

If you extend your principled boycotts to all companies and corporations in 21st century America that engage in rent seeking or look to the government to improve their market condition, you’ve got even more commerce not to conduct.<\/p>\n

(H\/T Instapundit<\/a>, who does not support it, which is fortunate, since I can hardly boycott Instapundit for more than a couple hours at a stretch.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
