GoDaddy, the web hosting service, has notified Texas Right to Life that it has 24 hours to find a new hosting service because the organization's anti-abortion "whistleblower" website violates the company's terms of service regarding people's privacy.
"Last night we informed prolifewhistleblower.com they have violated GoDaddy's terms of service and have 24 hours to move to a different provider," GoDaddy told Newsweek in a statement.
The website, prolifewhistleblower.com, allows people to leave anonymous tips reporting doctors, clinics or other individuals that may have helped women get an abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected.
However, GoDaddy's policies said that its registered and hosted websites cannot "collect or harvest" information about people without their consent. Its policies also forbid registered sites from doing anything that "violates the privacy or publicity rights of another User or any other person or entity, or breaches any duty of confidentiality that you owe to another User or any other person or entity."

They didn’t give me 24 hrs...Just ZAP and I was gone...I had to switch to epik.
Texas AG needs to sue this Corp and ban them from doing business in the state of Texas - pronto.
Go Daddy is a deadbeat Daddy.
They’re Big Tech scum.

godaddy is the worst.
Good reason to switch to the free-speech domain site: Epik.com
This is a news making story.
Plus.
It’s like a cheesy western movie.
I’m given you 24 hours to get out town, Pilgrim
hodaddy will get its 24 hours of flowery coverage.
And maybe alternative news will dig into hodaddy hypocrisy, if they can find any in 24 hours.
Any recommendations for business websites? I would like to ditch Go Big Bro.
How is this different from refusing to bake a cake for queers?
GoDaddy? More like NoDaddy.
That decision to attack Texas Right to Life was made by an individual within GoDaddy. That person apparently does not have the courage, honor or dignity to self identify. Does any Freeper know the name and title of the person who made that decision?
It's not. GoDaddy can do this.
Just like I can, at my very next convenience, take down the MANY sites I've had with them for at least 15 years.
Lots of other will do the same and they will lose millions.
Another enemy of the people stands up and makes themselves known.
Anyone can look up where a server is hosted.
I an kind of surprised a state would outsource stuff to Go Daddy….but Texans also relied on wind and solar in the middle of winter. So go figure.
Gee, I seem to remember a time, not all that long ago, when whistleblowers were heroes. I guess it just depends on whose whistle is getting blown.
Will switch tonight!!!!
Can i keep my domain name
