    It's only useless if you don't know about color codes.

    :D
    Looks like digg just committed suicide. If you don't know what happen, they were caught censoring stories about HD-DVD (one of their sponsors)
    They just showed everyone the money is more important than the user base. It's like the kiss of death. Kevin should have taken the 50 or 100million FOX offered. lol

    I don't think they will recover from this. Specially since there are sites like reddit.com people can move to.

    The code allows an HD DVD to be decrypted so third party players can play them.

    Yeah, they really brought it upon themselves. They could have let the original story stay and nothing would have ever happened ...

    It's probably good for them traffic wise. Any publicity is good publicity.
