Recently, I was trying to a buy a domain for which we had bid in Godaddy. We bid the suggested price in Godaddy. Our bid was rejected buy the owner. That peaked my curiosity to check who actually owned the website. When we ran whois on the domain. The name that pops up is Wild West Domains, LLC [https://ift.tt/MZ3a1zj] When you look further, Godaddy's CEO is the CEO of Wild West Domains. Lot of the staff are part of this LLC. Just wondering what is it all about?
