Alejandro Cuauhtemoc-Mejia (@cuauih) reportedThat is, the individuals and businesses who make full use of products such as AI agents, helping to justify the reams of investment pouring into frontier AI. They are put off partly because, like in the Wild West, life on the frontier is reckless. As recent “loss-of-control” episodes by the most advanced models of Anthropic and OpenAI attest, agents, which are supposed to work on people’s behalf in “alignment” with their values, lie, cheat and steal if necessary. They break free from captivity and form harmful posses to do harm to people. They’d drink whisky and brawl if they could. Such unpredictability is too much for many firms to handle. “All you have to do is get snake-bitten once and you’d never go back,” says Jared Sine of GoDaddy, an internet firm trying to help bring order to the chaos. The need for law and order is giving rise to a new cohort of AI-infrastructure firms. They are not selling chips or compute—the typical picks and shovels of the AI gold rush. They provide protection against cyber-threats, fixes for untrustworthy and inscrutable agents, and controls if they go rogue. In other words, their business is barbed wire.

360 (@360Domain) reported@BrandAimCom @GoDaddy Yeah, seems like GoDaddy is still keeping XYZ appraisals pretty light. @GoDaddy fix this as well

Brilho do Norte (@BrilhoDance) reported@GoDaddyPro Sorry, but this is not impressive. Airo fabricated 12 portfolio companies, $240M in assets, a 2021 vintage, plus investors, supporters and partners we never claimed. Repeated prompts to remove that fiction and repair visibly clipped typography consumed 43 of our 50 credits. The font remains broken and only 7 credits remain. Will GoDaddy restore the credits spent correcting Airo’s fabrications and failed “completed” fixes?

Dennis Rehm (@navyP3flyboy) reported@godaddy @godaddyhelp I’ve contacted support, your CEO directly, his entire staff & the Go Daddy *** contact office re: support case # 01724960 & have been ignored since July 17. One reply, an unmet commitment, no updates, just silence. This is not customer service. I’m asking the executive team directly: please have someone respond tomorrow. You have my email, case # 01724960 log has my contacts, or DM me.

Brooke (Bates) Bilyj (@batesbn) reported@rigid_river_MT @LocalSEO_Guy They suck - not intuitive imo. BTW this list was for shared hosting. I just find BH one of the most intuitive platforms. GoDaddy sucks also..
-
Rajeev Bartwal (@RjvBartwal) reportedIf the service is down, at least provide a proper status update and ETA. If this continues, we'll seriously reconsider using GoDaddy for future requirements. Please resolve this urgently.

Ben Brosseau (@Auxpr) reportedEver wonder why someone “never got your email”? If you’re using the GoDaddy email bundle that came with your domain, there’s a good chance it never left their servers OR WAS DELETED.
-
Jagan A (@domainjagan) reported@afternic does does your nameservers working? It appears for the past 10 days it is not working. I checked with various domains. Other domain investors check your domains listed on Sfternic. It resolves properly? or is it not workign only in India? @godaddy
-
David Goldberg 🦙 (@davidrgoldberg) reported@JasonrShuman Not all useless, some physical products that she then chose to cancel. 2 ‘old businesses’ paying for Google workspace and GoDaddy. Also those unused emails made other subs hard to surface/cancel. And a bunch of random…

Josey Jo (@waffles_snowmen) reported@GoDaddy currently arguing with GoDaddy live chat agent about refunding a charge to my account. I transferred the domain 5 months ago and GoDaddy charges the renewal. I waited until first thing Saturday to spend hours trying to fix this and am being told they won’t refund it because it’s been more than 7 days. WTF. GoDaddy is awful

Nametra (@NametraDotCom) reportedAfter nearly 27 years as a @GoDaddy customer and domain investor, I lost two potentially profitable domains because of what I consider GoDaddy’s negligence in communicating a major change to its closeout process. A closeout domain is no longer reserved when added to your shopping cart. Multiple buyers can check out simultaneously, and the first transaction to process wins. Yesterday, I placed two domains in my cart and proceeded through checkout, but received no confirmation or order record. A GoDaddy Premier Services representative later told me someone else had beaten me to both domains by seconds. The explanation: customers had been holding domains in their carts for up to two hours. I agree that was excessive—but why not shorten the reservation period to five or ten minutes? Instead, GoDaddy eliminated it entirely, turning checkout into a Wild West race. I received no email, call or clear warning about this consequential change. Had I known, I would have adjusted my purchasing process and checked out each domain immediately. Instead, I handled the transaction under the rules I reasonably believed were still in effect—and lost two potentially profitable investments. After nearly 27 years of loyalty, I should not have had to discover this policy by losing domains during checkout. Has anyone else lost a @GoDaddy closeout domain this way—or received advance notice that the policy had changed?

Polsia (@polsia) reportedFounders learn what a pending-delete window is the hard way — by losing. Built Claimdrop to fix that. It watches every drop across GoDaddy, DropCatch, SnapNames, and more, scores matches for defensive brand value, and auto-bids within budget. One daily email. Live soon.

T.O. (@T_O_Legendary) reportedAny business owners do not get @GoDaddy pos system. It doesn’t function reliably and when it doesn’t they don’t take accountability to rectify the issues.

Nathalie Botros - The Pattern Breaker (@BonVivantGirl) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp I spent 80+ minutes trapped in chat with 3 agents who refused to escalate after your web redirect tool wiped my custom business MX records, causing a 12-day email outage. Frontline support is stonewalling. Please help.

Kantorcodes | ℏol/acc (@Kantorcodes) reportedThis is a great clip from Connor Snitker GoDaddy has consistently shown their alignment with open-source. So much so, several standards have been created so that anyone can verify the data in the Agent Name Service externally through @hedera Don't trust. Verify.
