Diggboss goes down

A sad premature death , cheating never really gets one anywhere i guess

 Due to a request from Digg (yes the real digg.com) we have to stop offering digg exchanges.
Their lawyer sent us a cease and desist letter; we have until the end of this month to comply.
So let's enjoy our last days ;)

Code (markup):

 

Wow, interesting...that kind of sucks.

 

Too bad. I was just starting to enjoy using their service.

 

i heard of them but never used it

 

Yes they r banned and i was wondering from the starting how they survived till so long ... lol

 

I got two of my stories front paged let alone votes from diggboss and few friends , been using since the first day .. Sad news really !

 

That sucks to be them. They should come back on a new name.

 

Yeah, digg boss was great! To bad I wonder if its possible to start a underground digg site? One that never gets indexed by the search engines by blocking indexing? This way digg could not find out? I wonder if it would work. I am not going to do it I am just wondering if its possible.

 

so that means the digg lawers can force DP also to stop the digg exchanges!
may be this should have been posted in the leagal category

 

Was it really illegal ? Think not

 

It could work but I'm sure people would find out.

 

People yeah, but could digg then say anything?

 

Never used them but heard alot of them.. This was not very unexpected..

 

Darng my automation was working brill with diggboss.

 

Thats sad =[ Hope they create new site to accomplish there goals

 

Interesting, thanks for posting

Woah, really?

 

What did the C&D letter say, exactly?

 

C&D letters usually say the same: comply or get your ass sued

But I think they could see it coming heh

I'm wondering if it was just the domain name that was the trouble...

Of course, a C&D letter can claim anything. I could send them to all of my competitors demanding that they take down their web sites.
