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...

  • jayvdc, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14In Soviet Russia 09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0 bans you?
  • jklyon, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9it is so goddamn old. One more front-pager, and I am leaving for good.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8mods go home yet
  • inactive, 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
  • dustindikes, on 05/26/2009, -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 *****. So everyone is wrong on this one.
  • 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 *****.
  • 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.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Can't stop wont stop, uh uh, uh uh.

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5seems to be a lot of diggers floating around reddit right now

  • guice, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7It's funny. Just goes to show them you can't silence the mass; any attempts would result in a mass explosion of postings.

    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.
  • Shuk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3When the hell will this 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 thing end?
  • 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.
  • Cryptecks, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Uhm wow, I think a bunch of comments just disappeared.
  • Shuk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3When the hell will this 09- F9- 11- 02- 9D- 74- E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 thing end?

    Five six eight eight si

    Zero in the end
    All bad dee are emm shall pass
    Bits fall like raindrops
  • diggduggjoe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2See ya!

    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.
  • dudemanbro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is making me sick.
  • anthony0895, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2LoL
  • 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.

  • 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.
    "this’ll be the day that digg dies."
