Digg Shutdown!!!

Damn! I never knew it could get this bad. Apparently, Digg’s attempt to censor a popular story on the so-called “forbidden numbers” used to break HD-DVD caused a massive backlash against Digg and now every single frontpage story on Digg is about that very topic. Amazing!

I love democracy in action. Spread the key!

  1. As I write (7:40 am UK time) Digg has shutdown it’s popular stories pages entirely – the upcoming stories pages are still working, but not a single story to be seen on the popular stories page.

    I do recall seeing one of the “Digg banned my DRM story” Digg’s yesterday – it got about 10 votes in two or three minutes, including mine, before it mysteriously vanished from the system entirely.

  2. As Nelson would put it:
    Ha Ha!

  3. it’s allover the web… it starts to be annoying…

  4. This was an amazing run but unfortunately not a damn thing’s changed.
