GoDaddy is awful, but I'm just speaking from experience with using their service. Had no idea they supported SOPA.

They didn't just support SOPA.

A previous version of SOPA gave them special exemptions from several key areas of the law and even mentioned them by name.

Someone at GoDaddy is literally paying off politicians to make sure any internet censorship package doesn't hurt their business interests.

What we have here is a company that does not deserve people's business, and I would in fact be very glad if they got caught up in a huge class action lawsuit that shut them down.

Everyone should ditch godaddy and switch to seraphim labs.

Celiac disease ain't no joke, but I'm pretty sure what they're making fun of is the recent movement of mentally disturbed orthorexians without any gluten-related problems, and they are in their full right to make fun of those.

On the upside it means a very big and lively market for real gluten-sensitive people.

Unlike you people, I think it is a marketing success. I have never heard of this company until now. All the complains about the commercials means that people are talking about it, and learning that such a company even exist.

Which one is better? A company that noone knows that it exists, or one that everyone know that exist, and is trying to boycott it?

For society neither version of godaddy is important to have, so I wouldn't use that qualifier.
