Godaddy survey answers

Godaddy's in-house survey monkey just hit me up. Thought it was a good time to express their lack of advising themselves in regard to the impact to their public image when they took a stand against TDS: - Why did you rate Godaddy the way you just did (low)? Godaddy took a stand against freedom of speech in rejecting TheDailyStormer.com's (TDS) domain registration, and GoDaddy did so in a way which failed to uphold one of our community's foundational freedoms. When undermining a fundamental human right, as Godaddy did to TDS, even if your target is speaking objectionably, Godaddy as an "information carrier" (of sorts) has a significantly higher duty of care to its customers (e.g. TDS) than other entities. Godaddy, in cancelling TDS' domain, failed to conduct itself in a way compatible with its duty of care obligations to our community to treat every body fairly and in a way which preserves due process. Godaddy should advise itself to inform itself of the requirements for conduct in relation to those of its customers who say things on their websites which Godaddy may object to. - What is the single most important thing we could do to improve your experience? Advise yourself that when you take a public stand against freedom of speech (even objectionable speech), you are affecting your reputation negatively, in a big way. Due to the TDS episode, my plans are to transition completely off of Godaddy in the coming 2 years.

See how far 5.15 an hour will go Take a part time job at one your stores I bet you can't make it here anymore And there's a high school girl with a bourgeois dream Just like the pictures in the magazine She found on the floor of the laundromat A woman with kids can forget all that If she comes up pregnant what'll she do Forget the career and forget about school Can she live on faith? Live on hope? High on Jesus or hooked on dope When it's way too late to just say no You can't make it here anymore Now I'm stocking shirts in the Wal-Mart store Just like the ones we made before 'Cept this one came from Singapore I guess we can't make it here anymore Should I hate a people for the shade of their skin Or the shape of their eyes or the shape I'm in Should I hate 'em for having our jobs today No I hate the men sent the jobs away I can see them all now, they haunt my dreams All lily white and squeaky clean They've never known want, they'll never know need Their shit don't stink and their kids won't bleed Their kids won't bleed in their damn little war And we can't make it here anymore Will I work for food, will I die for oil Will kill for power and to us the spoils The billionaires get to pay less tax The working poor get to fall through the cracks So let 'em eat jellybeans let 'em eat cake Let 'em eat shit, whatever it takes They can join the Air Force or join the Corps If they can't make it here anymore Live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8h5VdIe33o ...but your pin head would probably explode.

Not "Oh". The link to GoDaddy's complete statement regarding it appeared on this list. Look it up. The CEO said the article about Heather Heyer was tasteless and borderline hate speech but what cut it was the Shitrag's peeps claiming GoDaddy supported their beliefs, and since that was a complete fabrication and libelous, the Shitrag was outta there. Typical Nazis. Give them a gun and they commit suicide.

Not "Oh". The link to GoDaddy's complete statement regarding it appeared on this list. Look it up. The CEO said

Oh, OK, it's not you saying it, --- it's, wait for it, the CEO of Godaddy!!! --- OMFG bow to the assertions of a CEO of some corporate for profit entity existing on "US Govt 'Statute' welfare". Why am I not surprised Razer that you've backed up your assertion with the assertion of someone else - a corporate CEO and nothing less (!) ?

...

the article about Heather Heyer was tasteless and borderline hate speech but what cut it was the Shitrag's peeps claiming GoDaddy supported their beliefs,

So I assume "the peeps" is random semi-anonymous individuals (or multiple sock puppets of the same person) posting on TDS. Got it: a random anonmous person said something about Godaddy on some website which Godaddy was holding the centralised domain registration for, and so Godaddy wielded their significant corporate power to wipe an entire website from the Internet. Yep, entirely rational.

...

and since that was a complete fabrication and libelous,

Are you backpeddling now saying Godaddy's claptrap was complete fabrication and libelous? Is this "Razer" I'm responding to?

...

the Shitrag was outta there. Typical Nazis. Give them a gun and they commit suicide.

I expect ad-hominems from you Razer, but anyway let's review your original assertion: You somehow caused to be sent to this august list:

The ShitSturmer got bounced for claiming GoDaddy's management supported their wrong opinion

Yes, I admit sadly, now you're beginning to make perfect sense: - TDS got kicked from Godaddy - your fact I agree with. - "Because they claimed" - your assertion, but a really important "more equal than others assertion" since it's backed up by a similar assertion by the .... CEO <drum roll> of Godaddy corporation. - "they" claimed Godaddy's management supported their .. opinion - so some anonymous someone (troll trying to take down TDS?) made some random anonymous claim about a corporation which the CEO did not like, and so said CEO took his bat and ball (and blanket) home with him since he didn't want to play anymore. - "they" had a "wrong opinion" - welp Razer, you've definitely nailed the funamentals of a strong argument and irrefutable fact here, I must say. Glad you clarified your position now - we might have been confused otherwise. Or something ...

Paraphrasing the CEO when the discussion is about his company is claimed not to be germane,

Feel free to continue to be obtuse, but you know that's got nothing to do with calling you out on your lack of facts. Paraphrase away - but why should your fact-less opinions be given any more credence just because you end up paraphrasing the opinion of someone else - even if it is a CEO? And even if it is the CEO of the company at issue? Why the F is his opinion any more of a fact than your opinion? Remember what you said:

...

...
...

...
The ShitSturmer got bounced for claiming

I said "that's a baseless, factless, opinion and nothing more", or words to that effect. You can back saying "oh well, you might be right - hey look here, actually it's not just my opinion, the CEO of the company at issue has this opinion also". And so, why are you surprised when I turn around and say "Razer, Razer, Razer, whatever are you smoking? The CEO's opininion is no more a fact than your opinion - how can continue to mistake opinions for facts?"

...

or the fact he's CEO somehow 'sullies' me.

Not at all, Razer - presenting the opinion of another as a fact and as "not just an opinion", when it's nothing more than an opinion, and when you were directly challenged on your own (identical) opinion earlier expressed, does not sully you whatsoever. All it does is point out that you have a high opinion of opinions, including your own, and apparently adopt the opinions of CEO's as though they're facts, and then try to pass them off not only as facts, but as your own opinionated "facts" (scare quotes intentional).

...

Sort of like being Good German who heard a Jew speak on the radio, makes the crypto-nazi suspect.

Victim consciousness more?

...

Just sayin'. Your Grandfather's propaganda doesn't work anymore. Besides Corporate Media Back the Fascists https://crimethinc.com/2017/08/29/not-your-grandfathers-antifascism-anti-fas... anyway.

Whatever your favourite targets for ad-homs are, they are. That STILL doesn't make your opinion about them a fact. And NEITHER does it make Godaddy's CEO's apparently identical opinion about them, a fact. And finally whether you are sullied by quoting Godaddy's CEO's opinion, as a supposed fact to back up your own opinion, is a matter for you and others - why should I care who you're smokin'?

I have a feeling that Internet Registrars and Cloudflare are doing this for their own legal protection. It's long established law that conspiracy to commit genocide, ethnic cleansing and to violate the human rights of groups of people is a crime. Creating the theoretical framework for genocide is also a crime as was evidenced by the conviction of Julius Streicher who authored Daily Stormer's predescessor Der Sturmer. It's Cloudflare and Registrars protecting themselves from being complicit in human rights crimes. And you know what. I don't blame them. I wouldn't piss on Andrew Anglin if he was on fire.

Sorry, but you are not even hundreds of miles away from being correct on this. To label DNS service, which is essentially monopoly, as supporting "genocide" is about 3-4 leaps of logic, far too much to work. A few nuts spouting nonsense is far, very far, from "conspiracy to commit genocide". Merely providing necessary net services to them, just as is done for thousands of sites, cannot possibly be described that way. Maybe you just have no respect for the concept of "Free Speech".

Sorry, but I cannot agree. That's way too close to the 'nutty lefty' way of thinking that is infecting our society today. At most, it is "hate speech", which the First Amendment protects.

What do you mean, "you cannot"? Do you mean, 'you are not allowed to'? Or do you mean, 'you are not capable of...'. ? Further, your reference to "conspiracy to commit genocide" is merely a flawed characterization on your part. While I don't claim that absolutely no people on the right are "conspiring to commit genocide", the vast majority are merely engaging in hostile speech that the left doesn't like, speech that I consider they have a right to make. I don't consider that as any justification at all to begin trying to shut down their right to free speech. Actual genocide is a major problem But your mere characterization of free speech as being "conspiracy to commit genocide" appears to me to not merely be wrong, but foolish.

I do defend Free Speech - but when people start planning on murdering whole groups of people it is no longer free speech. It's something else. There is no need for Hate Speech laws. ...Just when things go to plotting genocide, ethnic cleansing or removing the human rights of large groups of people it's criminal. Of course the actual line needs to be determined not by me but by a legitimate court. Would you actually call the Neuremburg trials nutty lefty ? I think not. It's mainstream actually rather conservative law.

Thankfully it is not significant numbers of people planning genocide. If there were we would be in much more trouble than we are. Groups like ironmarch, atomwaffen and many on Daily stormer certainly appear to be planning genocide. One does not tag their publication "the most genocidal republican website" if one is not interested in promoting genocide. ...But of course that will be for a judge to decide. Not me.

But you can't properly justify an improper action (censorship) without a very close arguable connection between the thing you claim to want to prevent, and the thing you claim should be done to prevent it. You haven't done that. Not even close. Not even a large distance away, in fact. Ever heard of this: "Think of the children!!!" People use various rhetorical tricks to justify things like censorship.

Not really. I am alarmed by the increasing number of people who have gong to the extreme position of advocating wiping people out. I am just hoping that the majority serves as a break on them. And the issue is not numbers here.

No doubt at all. If the internet was considered a public utility or something like that free speech would be better protected, however planning crimes like genocide would not be. Probably the most dangerous are not publishing anything at all.

No - i am speculating about the possible liability of people knowingly hosting sites planning genocide. And if the desires of ironmarch were to come to fruition it would not be minor at all. Thankfully they don't have much resources other than "mother of satan" and old smoke detectors.

The reason i mentioned ironmarch and atomwaffen is that their members have murdered people. Stormfront members have killed about 100 so far. What i am arguing is that there IS quite possibly a crime occuring when people use these sites to plan genocide. I'm not talking about idle talk. I'm talking about stuff that goes towards planning. I'm quite aware that this argument might lead to the prosecution of Alberto Gonzales, John Yoo and possibly even Alan Dershowitz who have created legal frameworks that could justify torture. Dersh came up with the idea of "Torture warrents". In their case there might be a direct connection with their frameworks and torture. Though i would say - that maybe i should be pushing for enforcement directly of the laws about conspiracy to commit genocide. (thinking)

I stand corrected. I conflated GoDaddy's rationale with Cloudflare's CEO statement:

...

Earlier today, Cloudflare terminated the account of the Daily Stormer. We've stopped proxying their traffic and stopped answering DNS requests for their sites. We've taken measures to ensure that they cannot sign up for Cloudflare's services ever again.

Our terms of service reserve the right for us to terminate users of our network at our sole discretion. The tipping point for us making this decision was that the team behind Daily Stormer made the claim that we were secretly supporters of their ideology.

Our team has been thorough and have had thoughtful discussions for years about what the right policy was on censoring. Like a lot of people, we’ve felt angry at these hateful people for a long time but we have followed the law and remained content neutral as a network. We could not remain neutral after these claims of secret support by Cloudflare.

https://blog.cloudflare.com/why-we-terminated-daily-stormer/ ...and I stand by what I said on another thread about an overweening reason DNS's take an incredible risk hosting Sturmer crap:

...

Godaddy's in-house survey monkey just hit me up. Thought it was a good time to express their lack of advising themselves in regard to the impact to their public image when they took a stand against TDS:

- Why did you rate Godaddy the way you just did (low)? Godaddy took a stand against freedom of speech in rejecting TheDailyStormer.com's (TDS) domain registration, and GoDaddy did so in a way which failed to uphold one of our community's foundational freedoms.

When undermining a fundamental human right, as Godaddy did to TDS, even if your target is speaking objectionably, Godaddy as an "information carrier" (of sorts) has a significantly higher duty of care to its customers (e.g. TDS) than other entities.

Godaddy, in cancelling TDS' domain, failed to conduct itself in a way compatible with its duty of care obligations to our community to treat every body fairly and in a way which preserves due process.

Godaddy should advise itself to inform itself of the requirements for conduct in relation to those of its customers who say things on their websites which Godaddy may object to.

- What is the single most important thing we could do to improve your experience? Advise yourself that when you take a public stand against freedom of speech (even objectionable speech), you are affecting your reputation negatively, in a big way. Due to the TDS episode, my plans are to transition completely off of Godaddy in the coming 2 years.

I dumped godaddy around 15 yrs ago when they lost my business site and refused to find it. i went to another host and namecheap. f godaddy.
