GoDaddy, Google to Pull Plug on Daily Stormer Site After Article Mocks Charlottesville Victim

[orleans]

"Domain hosting company GoDaddy said Monday that neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer has 24 hours to find a new provider before its service is canceled following the publication of a disparaging article about the woman killed in the Charlottesville protests.

"Shortly after the announcement, the Daily Stormer — the top hate site in America, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center — moved its domain to Google.

"But in a matter of hours, Google announced it, too, would not be hosting the website. "

1. These aren't the host server companies

They're .. well they were .. the domain registrar.

The Nazis will probably be online again very soon. I won't be giving them any traffic.

2. "would not be hosting the website" - this is not about "hosting" the website. It's about DNS...

"Domain Name System/Service" which is just about converting a domain name like somewhere.com
to the actual numeric Internet address of the website.
