Presidential Candidate Carly Fiorina Is Not Master of Her Own Domain
Posted in: UncategorizedThe first lesson of Digital Political Campaigning 101 is to lock down your domain names. This prevents people who do not like you — and in politics, you must assume there are lots of them — from doing something that makes you look not only bad, but also foolish enough for not securing those domains. The very least you should do is make sure yourname.com, yourname.org and yourname.biz aren’t being held hostage. And if they are, pay the ransom.
Carly Fiorina, who announced her candidacy for president this morning, failed to do this for carlyfiorina.org. Instead, someone who was unhappy with her tenure as CEO of HP has control of it and has used it to post 30,000 sad-face emoticons. Above the sea of sadness are the following words:
Carly Fiorina failed to register this domain.
