The fact that Cheezburger didn't dump GoDaddy over any of the scandals in the past, from their rampant sexism to elephant slaughter, bothers me.
I'm glad to see them taking this sort-of-a-stand right now, but they're not actually dumping GoDaddy over SOPA, they're only threatening to unless GoDaddy recants their support.
GoDaddy has already done the damage. If they were to recant their support now, the Congressmen in favor of SOPA could just dismiss it as folding under economic pressure, and still cite GoDaddy's original support as relevant.
I'd much rather see Cheezburger just dump them and be done with it.
I'm not sure right now. That was the last I heard before I left for vacation... Keeping to our CEO's advice and not checking any work email until I'm back from the holidays. I'm sure by then it will be apparent one way or another.
