A lot of experts already chimed in with what they had to say about the whole thing. If you havent't already heard about this elsewhere, then you shouldn't be here. :(

Anyway, I submitted my own stories to digg about the hd-dvd key and both actually were made "popular", one with 3000 diggs. Some people say its kids being malicious and defacing a website and they had no right to. Oh rly? Fuck you.

Digg lives and dies by its user base. We don't care what their TOS said. There's a difference between deleting racial hatred or porn and a hd-dvd key that means nothing by itself. Banning a story for a hexadecimal code is ridiculous. The user base expressed their point and digg realized they made a mistake. A 14th stripe wasn't added to the American Flag due to this momentous occasion, so everyone needs to take it easy.

I personally thought it was a great feeling to have a website change their position based SOLELY on our opinion. That truly is Web 2.0.

My next post will be about how much Nintendo Wii sucks balls. I can't wait.
