A lot of other companies were involved in writing SOPA, and even more support it still, that are not treated the same way GoDaddy is. There are a lot of other CEOs who did very bad things - but I don't see people boycotting them, either.

Just boycotting one SOPA supporter won't buy you anything, either.

Do tell me though, why GoDaddy is exceptional, and why the same treatment doesn't apply to the rest of the SOPA supporters.. because I honestly don't see the difference: they're all bad.

I didn't say anything about not doing the same to the others.

Please feel free to list up others along with what they did / are doing and I will support actions against all of those as well.

I only said the boycott against godaddy is OK for many reasons.

You can pretty easily get a list of SOPA supporters (eg, from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_organizations_that_supp...). Good luck boycotting them all!

However, I didn't say the boycott wasn't OK, either. It sure is, and it's well deserved.

I just said I'm not participating in it. If others do, that's their choice, and I don't see anything wrong with doing so, either. I just said I'm not going to, because (among other things) I consider it wrong to select one from the many, and punish only that, when there are others who are guilty of the same thing (and some even guilty of more).

I think the main factor here is that GoDaddy is probably the one SOPA supporter that many of us have used or are using. It's also very simple to switch away from them, and there are similar services with better interfaces.
