We’ve talked about SOPA, one of the Internet Blacklist Bills currently simmering in Congress, and the actions against it. We’ve also talked about the need to do business with the companies we want to see thrive, as opposed to just the ones who make it convenient. Now, the two are coming together.
Today, Go Daddy customers have been called on to transfer their domains as part of the #MoveYourDomain Day of action in protest of Go Daddy’s support of SOPA. As such, at midnight on this December 29th, 2011, Ape Con Myth initiated the transfer of the following domains:
ApeConMyth.com
SandwichCorp.com
TheShutUpSociety.com
TheParty.us
YellowTreeGranfalloon.org
They will now be residing with ACM’s hosting company, Dreamhost.
If you have a domain with Go Daddy, want to get out, but don’t know where to go with it, a few registrars are offering discounts along with donations to EFF for each transfer. And for those happy enough with Go Daddy’s reversal on SOPA, what are your feelings on elephants?
