GoDaddy Responds To Front Running Claims

Over the last week several bloggers have posted accusing GoDaddy of “front running”, which is a practice that was effectively blocked by ICANN several years ago.

GoDaddy have responded and explained how people can confuse lack of originality (their chosen domain wasn’t really unique) with nefarious activity.

Their post is short, sweet and to the point, but also illustrates that “original” is much harder to come by than many people think.
