They're the registrar for MANY spammers and scammers, and provide hosting for plenty of them. They used to respond to abuse complaints; now they just drop complaints sent to their abuse address.

That doesn't make them any worse than, say, GoDaddy, but given enough time, they'll probably end up just as bad.

The problem with these kinds of comments is, most people who use godaddy probably haven't had issues with them either. If 10% of users have their domain terminated for bullshit reasons -- which would be a ridiculously unimaginably high fraction -- 90% of users would still say "I have yet to have any issues with them".

In the early days GD was run by evangelicals and they had no compunction against canceling a domain for religious reasons. It amazes me that they managed to whitewash their image be among those who should know better.

The absurd commercials they put out (with the "uncensored" version on their website) probably helped that.
