” Any modification, change, alteration or similar action” - what is this? Thesaurus time?
“... you have no right to modify, change or alter in any way … the link to GoDaddy.com”
So you copy their link code, realise the img tag could do with an alt tag and instantly your right to place that link is terminated.
“ The right to place a link to GoDaddy.com may be terminated or revoked for any reason whatsoever in the sole and absolute discretion of Go Daddy.”
And ANY link to them ANYWHERE can be terminated if they want. What? Bizarre, utterly bizarre.

Man, that makes my brain hurt with the level of strange; did make me laugh when I thought about how they could technically tell Google or another search engine to cease linking to them because the links generated are redirects and thus alter the structure of the link.
