Really bad security. They still enable broken ciphers like RC4 via ssh on their shared-hosting web servers. BTW - these servers use CPanel, which runs on CentOS 6 (or a derivative), which is EOL. If your company uses any security scanner, it will flag a lot on GoDaddy.
All the cool kids on HN hate GoDaddy. When prompted to elaborate the usual answer is "cuz they suck" or "I don't like their CEO".
I first used GoDaddy about a decade ago, and thought nothing of it. I guess some people just like to hate. (or is it cancel nowadays?)
anyhow, imho, I do not see anything that I consider that bad; they are sure selling products that anybody involved in IT may consider at "low level", so avoiding it. I have the same reaction anytime I hear the term "Wordpress", but no doubt is used by so many.
