How the Digg team was acquihired

I distinctly remember that censorship was a big problem.

There was the whole DVD CSS key nonsense or maybe it was the key for Blu-ray or HD-DVD being censored on the site and the users kinda disobeying the sites mods.

I certainly stopped using the site after that. I never used reddit until recently.

You're thinking of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AACS_encryption_key_controvers...

It was HD-DVD

Thanks. I do remember people started moving over to reddit back then or at least starting to look around. I know I certainly did. But I just want to using traditional forums.
