Crowdsourced List of SOPA Supporters

Posted by timothy on from the shame-if-anything-was-t'-happen dept.

Fraser Cain writes "GoDaddy listened to reason, and reversed their position on SOPA. Here's a crowdsourced list of every other company supporting SOPA with web address, Twitter feed, contact emails and phone numbers. Perhaps they should be contacted to find out if they still fully support SOPA, or have changed their mind."

    GoDaddy didn't reverse their position at all. They are still in support of SOPA. Here is the CEO refusing to come out against the bill:

      100% right. And we can get a good guess where their policy is coming from when we see that Christine Jones has this on her Blog, undersigned in her role as general counsel and corporate secretary of GoDaddy.com

      The debate about the contents of this bill, and its companion bill in the Senate, the PROTECT IP Act, has been heated in recent weeks, as companies within the Internet ecosystem have rallied to lobby against the passage of legislation which might hold us accountable.

      That myopic view has never been shared by Go Daddy.

      The boycott of Go Daddy should not stop until at least Christine has been fired.

    I find it unproductive that certain members of congress openly state, "Businesses can and should regulate themselves," and then support SOPA which ignores Constitutional law.
