Thinking of joining the "I can't stand GoDaddy!" camp lately because (in addition to...):
Now GoDaddy thinks it's perfectly fine to hijack your Whois search on their site FOR A FEW BUCKS whenever the domain being searched is on auction (including closeouts!) on THEIR website, in order to railroad you into a domain purchase FOR A FEW BUCKS
I normally wouldn't rail against this (maybe) EXCEPT for the fact that very often one may wish to do some domain RESEARCH (about domain age, etc.) on a particular expired domain, for example, prior to a purchase, WHICH GODADDY NOW RENDERS IMPOSSIBLE on their website FOR A FEW BUCKS TO SUIT THEIR OWN INTERESTS AT THE INCONVENIENCE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS!!!
Thanks a lot, GoDaddy.
