I own a couple of domain names through GoDaddy, a large registrar and hosting company. I've just logged into my account to send them this message through the support queue.
<<<
It has come to my attention that GoDaddy provides registration services for a hate-site calling for the deaths of specific named private individuals, and run by a known domestic terrorist. If this is not changed very quickly I will move all my sites from GoDaddy and spread the word about you to everyone I know.
The site, projectsee.com, is in clear violation of GoDaddy's own terms of service, which state that "morally objectionable" activities include the following:
* activities designed to defame, embarrass, harm, abuse, threaten, slander or harass third parties;
* activities prohibited by the laws of the United States and/or foreign territories in which You conduct business;
* activities designed to encourage unlawful behavior by others, such as hate crimes, terrorism and child pornography;
* activities that are tortuous, vulgar, obscene, invasive of the privacy ofa third party, racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable;
* activities designed to impersonate the identity of a third party;
* activities designed to harm or use unethically minors in any way.
The website in question clearly shows the names, phone numbers, and emails of individuals whom the authors believe should be targeted in their home country of Kenya.
This very personal attack constitutes a direct threat to the safety and well-being of these individuals and is morally reprehensible. Please take immediate action to remove this website.
Thank you.
Timothy Green.

The founder/owner of godaddy is a religiot. Are you surprised they are also capable of looking the other way regarding this?

That's a good letter, TRiG. What country is Godaddy based in? They also seem to be breaching advertising standards and/or commerce laws.

They're based in the USA.
The site also has a "donate" button, which makes use of a PayPal account, so I sent PayPal a message too.
