Veuer's Maria Mercedes Galuppo (@mariamgaluppo) has more. Buzz60 PHOENIX — GoDaddy, which is the largest Internet domain-name seller in the world, announced Sunday evening it will no longer provide service to the neo-Nazi website, The Daily Stormer. The company (GDDY), which is based in Scottsdale, Ariz., has drawn criticism for months for its willingness to provide a domain name for a website "dedicated to spreading anti-Semitism, neo-Nazism, and white nationalism," according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. The move comes after The Daily Stormer published an article Sunday using sexist and obscene language to demean Heather Heyer, the 32-year-old woman who was killedwhen a car driven by an alleged white supremacist mowed down a crowd of people after a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va. After it was removed from Go Daddy, The Daily Stormer switched its domain registration to Google, according to public search records. But after several hours, a Google spokesperson told Reuters that the website violates its terms of service and has since also removed. After someone tweeted a reference to the article asking GoDaddy to remove it and ban the site, GoDaddy replied, "We informed The Daily Stormer that they have 24 hours to move the domain to another provider, as they have violated our terms of service." People gathered in Charlottesville, Virginia to remember Heather Heyer, the woman killed when a car rammed into a group of demonstrators on Saturday. (Aug. 14) AP GoDaddy corporate spokesman Dan Race confirmed the action in an email to The Arizona Republic, which like USA TODAY is a part of the USA TODAY Network. Previously, the company served "as the domain name registrar for The Daily Stormer, through its subsidiary Domains by Proxy, as it has throughout the site’s four-year history," according to the investigative news website, Reveal.
