Give me a 100 word summary of the controversies surrounding GoDaddy and its founder.

GPT-4: GoDaddy, a popular web hosting service, and its founder Bob Parsons have been involved in several controversies. Criticism often targets GoDaddy's provocative advertising strategies, which some deem sexist. Parsons himself has faced backlash for his elephant hunting video in 2011, which many viewed as unethical and sparked a wave of customer boycotts. Additionally, GoDaddy's initial support for the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in 2011 provoked outrage for potentially threatening internet freedom, leading to a significant customer exodus until the company reversed its position.
