The Day Digg Went Crazy
blogyoulikeahurricane.com — Has the site completely turned on its owners? All but one story on the front page are about the HDDVD code... and I thought diggers preferred Blu-ray...

http://reddit.com/info/1mmr3/comments - knightblade2oo4, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9This is the best thing I've ever seen on the Internet. And I've seen some pretty cool *****.
- TomPlansMedia, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7i think it's pretty childish, but its something to make note of. this is social media, and this is what can potentially happen at any time

- Akaji, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's stupidity. Digg has done a great job up until now - one slip-up by them should not start a "Digger revolution", unless most of Digg's userbase is made up of a-holes.
- dudemanbro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is making me sick.

Doubt you will live up to that claim jklyon.
This will die down eventually, but Digg will have to figure out how democracy works. Transparency is required. They want to control stories without any oversight. The people will resist that. If, we could only get the crew to resist the Republicrats and seek new leadership for America, which would be far more noble endeavor.

AACS LA were better off keeping it silent. I mean, the decryption code has been out since Feburary and I can guarantee half the people on Digg has never herd of it until all these cease and desist letters started to circulate.
All well, everybody has to learn the hard way eventually. - HyrulianGamer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Wow.. I come to digg for the first time today and am in the middle of all this chaos... that's some stuff....
I don't believe in censorship, but I also don't believe in spamming assholes. So everyone is wrong on this one. - tarynme, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1WOW no more comments.
- conorryan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1We started singing,
"bye-bye, miss american digg."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
And singin’, "this’ll be the day that digg dies.

Bits fall like raindrops - TrevorBradley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This is just the digg userbase asserting themselves, telling digg that they're even more powerful than the DCMA.
Both could take down your site. If I were digg admin, I'm not sure which side I'd choose. They're likely all getting *really* drunk somewhere right now.- juneau, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Asserting themselves? You pricks can't muster up a revolution or even minimal energy for anything of importance to the real world but mess with a few posts about HD-DVD and you're all suddenly "OMG, GRAB THE TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS, THIS PLACE MUST BURN!"
So, in short, ***** each one of you that think spamming digg matters. Being annoying is the lowest form of comedy.
