- TapTapper, on 02/23/2009, -1/+70The best one:
"If it's in one it's in all. I don't have cable and im not getting a box. They can watch me from the camera they put on the phone pole outside of my house. I will not make it easy for them, and I won't pay to be spied on."
Jiminy Cricket! - MtheoryX, on 02/24/2009, -2/+45This makes me feel so good!!
There will NEVER be a shortage of absolute freaking idiots to take advantage of...
"You'll never go broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." - Tobey, on 02/24/2009, -1/+44ZOMG the government is in ur converterz watchin u sit on ur ass.
- TeraRealm256, on 02/24/2009, -0/+41people are fooled by anything...especially if it's electronics they know nothing about!!!
- defectDS, on 02/24/2009, -0/+37NO NO! I just checked! THERE WAS ONE IN MINE TOO!
http://www.timshundo.com/dpud/uploads/DSC00034a.JP ... - Heidenreich12, on 02/24/2009, -0/+28classic. Even after seeing this people will still believe its real, that's the worst part
- videodroner, on 02/24/2009, -3/+26You sound like that annoying kid that thinks he's the first one to figure out what 1984 is all about.
- inactive, on 02/23/2009, -2/+22You'd think that the package already being open in the video would have raised a red flag.
- ryan83189, on 02/24/2009, -7/+26High tech enough to transmit video to the government, low tech enough to not tune in half the damn time, the perfect balance if I don't say so myself.
1.Mandate switchover.
2.Subsidize conversion with Magnivox, aka NWOtech.
3.?????? ---probably sell raw info to Neilson or Osama Bin Laden at his desk job at the CIA.
4. Profit
Probable Future Plans:
5. Amazing new reconnaissance ability of landfills, the nervecenter of dissent in any western culture.
6. Proof of moonlanding hoax videos will be censored automatically
7. Fairness doctrine- byebye AM radio, it is now called 10100010 10101101 01011101 10101111 0101010
8. You better know how to read that binary encoding because it is the future language of the American Union (of socialism and freemasons and enslavedmasons, an even more dangerous and secret group) - a1cd, on 02/24/2009, -0/+19Yeah we kinda got that from the "hoax" in the title.
- digitalpencil, on 02/24/2009, -0/+19you are an idiot.. do you not think that when the first box went in for repair, that there would be public outrage when one of us opened it up and went.. err.. why is there a camera looking at me?!
they'd have to do a hell of a job hiding this ***** without someone noticing, not to mention censoring all manufacturing industry, across every brand from leaking it to the public..
i really don't mean any offense directly but people like you make me sad.. it's clear why Zeitgeist got such a great reception amongst the youtube generation. - Sogui, on 02/24/2009, -0/+17Make fun of youtube all you want, but f the video had been submitted to Digg first it probably would've made the top 10... stupid comments included!
- ianryerson, on 02/23/2009, -5/+22Conspiracy theory. The paranoid are going to hate this.
- Cl1mh4224rd, on 02/24/2009, -1/+17> "OXYMORONS ARE USED BY SPAMMERS"
Books, dude... You might like them. - digitalpencil, on 02/24/2009, -1/+17............................................________

- digitalpencil, on 02/24/2009, -0/+14it makes me wonder how many idiots are going to rip apart their digi-boxes looking for the camera though.. lol ;)
- Tobey, on 02/24/2009, -0/+14It's a camera from some cheap digicam glued to a transformer.
- Hellman109, on 02/24/2009, -0/+14Pfft all lies.
Osama obviously is a field agent. - maz2331, on 02/24/2009, -0/+13But because of a legal loophole, only converters purchased with government coupons can have the camera activated.
/s
/tin_foil_hat - acroyear2, on 02/24/2009, -2/+15DIET PEPSI TASTES JUST LIKE REGULAR PEPSI
- riyehn, on 02/24/2009, -0/+13I'm voting those comments up because it's just too funny.
- Chris_F, on 02/24/2009, -0/+12You forget that 99% of people aren't this smart. People like you wouldn't fall for this crap regardless of the technical inaccuracies.
- KyleJorgy, on 02/24/2009, -1/+131984 dumbass
- Eight7, on 02/24/2009, -0/+12listen I'm sure the government does plenty of shady stuff but anyone who believes they stuck a camera in your DTV box are ***** ***** insane
- MaxxusFlamus, on 02/24/2009, -2/+13no....videodroner is right....
1984 is possibly the most over quoted literary work on digg and the internet tin foil hat folk get chubbies quoting it. - HonoredMule, on 02/24/2009, -1/+12Pasted onto the frame of a transformer, with no electrical connections...
/facepalm
You'd think a good hoax would at least augment the design with working camera parts and then show the demonstrator "tapping" the webcam's broadcast signal and show his computer monitor displaying the intercepted video in real time while the box is in operation. - stack3r, on 02/24/2009, -1/+11I actually get rock hard erections from quoting it. Not this "chubbie" stuff.
- mysticalone, on 02/24/2009, -0/+10i don't see it
- Brak710101, on 02/24/2009, -1/+10The sad thing is how people really do believe stuff like this, I just can't understand why people aren't more skeptical about what others tell them.
Look at the youtube comments, it's almost funny how people try to convince themselves it's real. - Tobey, on 02/24/2009, -0/+9It's a real camera, it's just not connected to anything. The IR sensor is the thing to the left with the metal shroud around it. The mic looks like a speaker from something, again, not connected to anything...
- Nickolassc, on 02/24/2009, -0/+9Kyle shh.... It's like an exclusive club where we can all share a laugh at people who can't read.
- tgc1, on 02/24/2009, -0/+9... Watchin' you fap.
- azureskies88, on 02/24/2009, -10/+18WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. - r0b1, on 02/24/2009, -1/+9BLACK HELICOPTERS ZOMG
- ninjatech123, on 02/24/2009, -0/+8Well, there is now that the guy glued them in there!
- Nothlit, on 02/24/2009, -0/+8You do realize the DTV transition has nothing to do with cable TV, right?
- Nickolassc, on 02/24/2009, -0/+7God help us all...
- Dr3w, on 02/24/2009, -0/+7No really, there's a cam and mic in them.
- BossKey, on 02/24/2009, -0/+7Oh jesus, it's just a matter of time before my paranoid mom hears about this...
- MakinBacon, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6You're just being paranoid.
- MaxxusFlamus, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6good god diggers will be all over it- calling a call to arms, hoarding guns, and the secession of New Hampshire...
- Dgen_X, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6PHEW! I bought two at once...and I only had one coupon...guess I'll use the unit I paid for with the coupon in the basement...and use the other in my mountain hideout
Our revolution will come...just not during Desperate housewives - inactive, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6WAEK UP SHEEPLE
- twiztidsinz, on 02/24/2009, -1/+7people fooled by this =/= rational thinkers
- stack3r, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6rofl
- nightManCometh, on 02/24/2009, -0/+6Epic fake conspiracy nutjobness. *Takes apart his DTV converter box*
- stinkybinky, on 02/24/2009, -0/+5and famous authors too?
- Cl1mh4224rd, on 02/24/2009, -0/+5> "But because of a legal loophole, only converters purchased with government coupons can have the camera activated."
Don't worry. Some intrepid hacker will release a firmware upgrade or a mod chip or something. -
