Digg.com offline from DMCA?
I was just watching an insanely popular Digg thread that supposedly contained the key to the HD-DVD encryption scheme. It went straight to the top 10 by the time I finally quit watching, about 30 minutes.
I just checked back in to see what it’s doing now, and Digg is completely offline. Not even a 404… Traceroute is dying along the way as well.
I’m guessing this has something to do with the DMCA. If that’s the case, it’s pretty scary to think someone could pull the plug on Digg like that. Should be interesting to find out!
UPDATE: by the time I published this, it’s back up. Maybe it was just a random event or heavy traffic, who knows. Anyway, here’s a link to the Digg thread.
