GoDaddy is cutting off Texas Right to Life’s abortion ‘whistleblowing’ website
Without knowing exactly what&#x27;s going on it&#x27;s difficult to say. My better nature thinks that hopefully this is not a case of moral arbitration on the part of GoDaddy.  It&#x27;s quite likely if the site has generated huge amounts of traffic it could be counted as impacting services and this is why they need to move or perhaps get DDOS protection to prevent that.  Giving godaddy&#x27;s history I have my doubts that&#x27;s the reason.<p>Since this is not the first time GoDaddy has done similar things I do not know why anyone would continue to use GoDaddy for anything.  I want the employees of GoDaddy to be politically active and participate in the democratic process but I do not GoDaddy as a company to be the moral arbiter of things.<p>The CEO of GoDaddy, maybe not the current one I haven&#x27;t kept up on things, has had his own troubles yet I don&#x27;t recall him getting completely canceled by the company.  This kind of Jim Crowesque behavior from companies always ends badly.  This is literally what happens when people are single issue zealots.  They seem completely incapable of understanding that the reasoning that they apply against their single issue will eventually turn around and be used against them.<p>What we need is laws that companies cannot be moral arbiters.  If companies do choose to become moral arbiters then all protections against them are removed.  You cannot cancel someone because you do not like what they say and then turn it right around and claim common carrier status therefore you are not responsible for something else you&#x27;re hosting.  Yeah this is what we see repeatedly with a number of these companies they wish to feign ignorance and common carrier status but they also wish to selectively police things.
