To anyone saying, "Hey, don't be vindictive! Don't we _want_ people to come around and be forgiven?"
I see it as the difference between what a politician says and what a politician does. (That metaphor is not really a stretch here.)
Saying, "We oppose SOPA," is not the same as opposing it.
GoDaddy participated in drafting the bills (SOPA, PROTECT-IP, and probably COICA and ACTA -- remember, GoDaddy is the de facto recipient of ICS/DHS seized domains).
GoDaddy laughed when their customers threatened a boycott.
Today is "transfer your domain away from GoDaddy day." And only today their PR says, "we oppose SOPA!"
If a politician says they'll bring home the troops* ... do you forgive them for the needless deaths when they say it? Or when they do it?
* I believe the USA has the best armed forces in the world, who then suffer the whims of both political parties shedding blood and treasure for pointless aims. Have we learned the lessons of Vietnam yet? I support the _troops_, but if you're not happy with my political metaphor, please use whichever political decision best fits for you.
