I’ve followed HN for around 10 years now but even basic stuff like this can come across as jazz to me. Funny thing is I understand jazz at a professional level. I feel foolish because I use godaddy, because they have good customer service and their interface is easy to understand but as a HN lurker I want to have good web etiquette. I’m going to see about turning this feature off in the way the author describes but what can I do to stay clear of the Kenny Gs of tech? Full disclaimer I have nothing against Kenny G, and even respect him, just one of those jazz expressions...
Companies that do this kind of garbage don't deserve your dollars. Its not enough to apologise after the fact, or offer opt-out, or any other half measures. I'm moving my domains over to someone else this week because of this.
