Wikipedia gone from Go Daddy
The Wikimedia Foundation has completed the process of transferring its domains away from Go Daddy in response to Go Daddy's initial support for the Stop Online Piracy Act, the foundation said last week.
"As the provider of the fifth most visited web properties in the world, the foundation cares deeply about who handles our domain names. We had been deliberating a move from Go Daddy for some time — our legal department felt the company was not the best fit for our domain needs — and we began actively seeking other domain management providers in December 2011. Go Daddy's initial support of (SOPA) ... reaffirmed our decision to end the relationship," the foundation said in a blog post.
The foundation's domain portfolio is now being handled by San Francisco-based registrar MarkMonitor.
