Anonymous takes down GoDaddy - Millions of sites down

I give my props to the person(s) who did this, to an extent. It clearly got some news for Anon, which I adore, but they could have done it a bit different.

Actually, it was a great way of showing power, and I love that they did it. Granted, I'm also an advocate for privacy on the internet. That's why I (when I feel like it) run my internet connection through a proxy in France or Africa.

So you advocate disrupting millions of websites, causing people to lost money and time... just because you think it is Cool or something? What, are you twelve years old, with no sense of social responsibility?

^^ she's 15.

I actually support this completely. Any business which is hosted by Godaddy financially supports SOPA, making it a legitimate target. I think what Anon did is social responsibility.

If you don't want to be targeted in acts of civil disobedience, don't support companies which take on controversial positions.

If we didn't have so any software / media thieves, they wouldn't have to take positions like that!

I agree that SOPA was overkill, and would have impacted too many innocent people! We need to target just the Thieves... hopefully with a flamethrower! :)

I thought SHE was a HE? Just because Losing a Boyfriend was mentioned, doesn't automatically make him / her a GIRL, right?

So they weren't hacked they're just incompetent? That's good for business. I figured they'd say Danica crashed it like she does her race cars.

Go Daddy says that there is no one correct way to run a registry and the servers being down was an artistic decision.

They "meant" to chop of the server head and limbs when they framed it.
 

"NO Burger King for YOU!" said in the Soup Nazi voice!

And, zOMG to The_Traveler...I was gonna post the same basic excuse, that Go Daddy's massive dump-taking was "the way they like it," and "was intended to be that way," and, "I see it a lot elsewhere on the internet, so it MUST be cool!" buuuut...you already played that one. Nice one, Lew!

Computer systems fail, servers fail, cars fail, it’s going to happen regardless of what setup you have or what experience your people have. How is this incompetence? Two space shuttles have blown up, Apollo 13 suffered an O2 tank explosion and mission critical computers fail on the International Space Station from time to time. Does that mean NASA is full of incompetence? Don’t think so.

Have you ever taken a poor picture before and thought it could have been done better? I guess you’re incompetent as well.
