Comment GoDaddy could be better... (Score 1) 20
Most domain registrars have a SLAs or OLAa suggesting turnaround time of about 24 - 72 hours when it comes to malware or phishing abuse
In contrast GoDaddy takes forever for enforcement even for trivial cases, and with proof handed over on a silver platter.
I wonder why GoDaddy are so vocal about this, perhaps because they may lose a significant chunk of their so caller customer or reseller base, because lets face it:
If Jhon Doe who always pays with cryptocurrencies has had 1280 domains revoked for confirmed fraud so far, chances are, well the 2181st one shall not be of very high quality either, wink wink.
However pivoting in such a manner is something GoDaddy seems incapable of doing, same as writing a regular expression for countless easy to predict DGA
domains following the same pattern.
In their "arsenal" of tools for efficient stalling is also requesting a subpoena or court order (?!), e.g. fighting digital crime with analog means.
Some GoDaddy staff also do not seem completely aware of their obligations as a registrar entity, specifically section 3.18 of the RAA, as they are quick to dodge responsibility in many cases with "we are just the domain registrar" excuse, which is complete nonsense.

Section 3.18 of the ICANN Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) mandates that registrars maintain 24/7 monitoring for malicious activity, investigate abuse reports, and take immediate action. The 2024 amendments to the policy, part of the DNS Abuse Mitigation Program, further strengthen these obligations to actively combat malware and phishing threats.
