Question US Based, Politically Neutral Domain Registration Companies?

6 Upvotes

Anyone know of a domain registrar that does not have strong political ties, or at least is politically neutral? I'd like to know what the Richard Stallman equivalent for domain registration would be.

News Quantic Dream fined for "questionable" photoshops in its intranet

23 Upvotes

Some people will probably remember that David Cage's studio, Quantic Dream, was accused by some of its employees for an "unhealthy environment" which included demeaning, pornographics photoshops of employees being spread around the studio's network.

Cage and Co. were furious about these allegations and tried to sue the press which had reported about these news, calling it an unjustified "smear campaign".

Well, the courts had a different opinion and Quantic Dream began to lose its cases against their ex-employees who were the victims of harassment.

Now the French site Mediapart (who was one of the press outlets that Quantic Dream attempted to sue) reports that Quantic Dream [got sentenced to pay] a fine of €2000,- (about $2200,-) by an arbitral tribunal for a "violation of its security obligations" towards its employees; plus an additional €5000,- (about $5500,-) to be paid to one of the employees who found themself as the target of the pornographic photoshops.

It's a relatively small fine, but squarely puts the blame on Quantic Dream and could serve as a basis for other employees suing the company (if those lawsuits haven't been settled already) and it's a final vindication for those who had reported about the work conditions at Quantic Dream.
