I previously supported GoDaddy because they were based out of the US and had local US support.

Same reason I recently switched to NameCheap during the whole 'GoDaddy supports SOPA' affair.

Gandi.net headquarters is based out of Paris, France (although they do have a US office).

One thing to bear in mind.

You have to keep in mind that the location of the registar doesn't matter since SOPA lets the US government go directly to Verisign.

Verisign is still vulnerable to alternative DNS regimes.
