With everyone talking about Godaddy today, I thought this would be interesting to bring up...

I live in the bay area and there aren't a whole lot of options for fast internet here (and I imagine that's true for a lot of places). Comcrap seems to have a monopoly for decent speeds and not using them like transferring domains off Godaddy doesn't seem to be as easy (or rather the options are not comparable).

Worse, VISA and Mastercard, the two most widely accepted credit card companies (and on debits) also support SOPA. Kinda shitty.

I briefed over the list and I "think" those are the obvious ones I can see that would directly affect me aside from Godaddy.

Anyone else have any thoughts on this? Clearly singling out Godaddy alone doesn't address these other companies, some of which I think affects others here... I guess others here are more critical of Godaddy because they serve the web? I guess in the same sense you can say Comcast grants access to the web and VISA and Mastercard drives transactions. Legitimately, I am wondering if others are willing to prove a point with one company, are they willing to do so with others (including the above).
