HD-DVD Crack and Digg controversy not over
By Bulletz. Filed in BUZZ |
A famous movie once said “The Battle for Helm’s Deep is over. The War for Middle Earth is about to begin” (LOTR).
That’s the scenario on Digg today after revolution that got many users banned and a story buried. It seems that since the HD-DVD crack for Linux users has been posted, Digg has been inundated with blog posts about it. Since then, the owners of Digg were served with a cease a desist order. It’s a good thing that they listened to their patrons and decided to go down fighting, if they must go down at all. Already an army is forming to support Digg and their decision not to remove all stories relating to this debacle. I fathom that all users who have been banned will be reinstated, the stories that were removed put back, and the war will begin.
btw the code is 09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63-56-88-c0 heehee!

If that is indeed the real code, I would be very careful about posting it on your blog. Unlike digg, you may not be able to get away with it.

Is it copyright infringement? I would not mess with a legal cease and desist, but they cannot put knowledge back in a box once it has been released.

Wish someone would bury Digg. I think it is a waste of time.
The traffic it creates is poor. It is way over hyped.
