Why GoDaddy’s decision to delist a neo-Nazi site is such a big deal


A lesser-known tech start-up, Cloudflare, continued to service the Daily Stormer. Daily Stormer also has posted the names and contact information for a Jewish family in Whitefish, Mont., describing the 12-year-old son with slurs for Jewish and gay people. GoDaddy’s decision comes on the heels of largely reactive moves by tech giants to crack down on hateful content. The move prompted some neo-Nazi and white nationalist leaders to turn to a new crowdfunding site, Hatreon, which says it does not police speech. Unlike media companies, technology companies are shielded by laws that do not hold them responsible for content that appears on their platforms.
