Hear Hear.
After reading the GoDaddy domain registration legal agreement, 
available at:
https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/legal_agreements/show_doc.asp?se=%2B&ci=1839&pageid=REG%5FSA
especially section 7, "Restriction of Services, Right of Refusal", I 
have to give them a big thumbs up.

It is good to see that wielding a Big Stick, and actively working 
for the Good Guys has not hindered GoDaddy from achieving quite a 
bit of success in the market.
