Go Daddy stops registering Chinese domain names amid censorship concerns

  
TWO days after Google halted censorship in China, another major US internet company, web domain registrar Go Daddy, has announced that it was cutting back on its activities there.

Executive vice president Christine Jones said Go Daddy, one of the largest registrars of domain names in the world, is no longer registering names in China because of new requirements imposed by the Chinese authorities.

Ms Jones also told a hearing of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China that Go Daddy was one of the companies hit by cyberattacks originating from China in December which led to Google's decision to stop censorship there.

Google effectively closed its Chinese-language search engine in China on Monday and began redirecting mainland Chinese users to an uncensored site in Hong Kong.

Ms Jones said Go Daddy has been authorised since April 2005 by the China Internet Network Information Centre (CNNIC) to offer ".cn" registration services and is currently managing some 27,000 .cn domain names.

The .cn suffix is a so-called Top Level Domain for China like .com or .net and individuals and companies seeking to create a web address are required to go through a registrar such as Go Daddy.

Ms Jones said Go Daddy has been required by the CNNIC to collect the contact information of the individual or company registering a domain name including their full name, address, telephone number and email address.

Four months ago, however, CNNIC required registrants of new .cn domain names to provide colour headshot photos, a Chinese business registration number and signed registration forms, she said.

Go Daddy was later told that it would have to obtain such information from all existing domain name registrants who are Chinese nationals and to provide copies to the CNNIC, she said.

"No convincing rationale for the increase in documentation was offered," she said.

"The intent of the new procedures appeared, to us, to be based on a desire by the Chinese authorities to exercise increased control over the subject matter of domain name registrations by Chinese nationals."

大致内容:
Go Daddy是全球域名登记服务最大公司之一。2005年起被允许在中国服务，目前拥有27，000 .cn域名登记。

之前域名登记只需要姓名、电话、地址、电邮。4个月前被当局告知新注册.cn需要彩色照片、商业登记号，签名表格。之后再被告知手里现有客户全部要提供这些资料，并提交一份给当局。

发言人说当局没有提供合理的理由，似乎只是希望增加他们的控制权。公司宣布正在减少在中国业务。并说公司也是12月遭受黑客入侵的公司之一。

Google和Go Daddy一直有深度合作关系，而且从07年就传Google要收购Go Daddy。

今天才知道Go Daddy也做.CN业务
