The domain registration website GoDaddy on Wednesday suspended the domains of a Republican-connected firm that sent anti-Obama text messages to cell phone users in the Washington, D.C. area last night, according to The HIll newspaper. The messages, sent by ccAdvertising of Virginia, covered topics like abortion, MediCare and same-sex marriage and were sent from email addresses from the domains gopmessage.com and informedett.com.
While the firm’s identify was originally hidden, GoDaddy revealed the registration information because the websites were “suspended for spam and abuse.” The sites were registered by ccAdvertising chief operating officer Jason Flanary, a Republican who ran for Virginia state senate in 2011.
