Even if its not. Bail from Godaddy.com. Seriously. Granted the same problem may persist given that .coms have a US based organization that governs them (I think). Nonetheless, this is the exact same godaddy.com that supported SOPA. There have been so many forks in the road where the obvious choice was to bail on GoDaddy.com. Yet, they stayed and here they are.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Verisign, an American company based in Virginia, is the authoritative registrar for .com and .net.

More precisely Verisign is the registrY, GoDaddy the registrAR. Not that it changes anything in this case.
