Seriously, things we’re going nicely in land of tech: Joost went into overdrive allowing users to send out unlimited invites, something got blended and a decryption code was released that in turn caused what right now (9:00 PM on the west coast) appears to be a complete uprising on the front page of Digg.com. New stories are flooding in containing nothing but spam and a decryption key for hacking HD-DVD’s, each one scoring thousands of diggs all to show the site admins whose really in charge … for now. But I think overall Niero puts it best:
“Note to the HD-DVD legal council: don’t waste your time, stupid. The code is Chinese to 99% of the people involved in this Digg party. It’s the guy that chatted about it on mIRC four weeks ago with his legion of 7R0Z3NCR3W M3MB34Z that they have to worry about. Book a flight to Europe and get off Kevin’s back.”
Well I’m off to go illegally copy some HD-DVD’s I don’t have using my non-existent HD-DVD player, goodnight!
[UPDATE!]
Looks like Kevin couldn’t take it, Digg.com is officially offline, let’s see how this whole thing blows over in the morning.
