Is GoDaddy privacy protection worth it?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 4:56 pm

GoDaddy is a popular domain name registrar and web hosting company. It offers a variety of privacy protection features, including DNS privacy, HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and browser locking.

To test how these features work, we first created a DNS record that pointed to a website that logs user activities. We then visited the website using two different browsers.

In the first browser, we disabled all of GoDaddy’s privacy protection features. In the second browser, we enabled all of GoDaddy’s privacy protection features, including DNS privacy, HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), and browser locking.

PRO TIP: While GoDaddy’s privacy protection may be appealing, it is important to remember that no privacy protection service is perfect. There are always risks associated with sharing personal information online, even when using a privacy protection service. Be sure to weigh the risks and benefits of using a privacy protection service before making a decision.

The results of our experiment show that GoDaddy’s privacy protection features work well. We were able to visit the website in the second browser without any problems.

In fact, we even had to disable some of GoDaddy’s privacy protection features in order to be able to visit the website.

Overall, we found that GoDaddy’s privacy protection features are effective and worth using.
