SELaplana >> Internet >> Digg Really Censors… Should Diggers Revolt Again?

Niel Patel finally realized that it’s the system of Digg that buries automatically undiggable content or content of undiggable sites.

You probably think users buried the story, but it actually was one of the Digg employees who buried it or an algorithm that is targeting specific content topics/sites. If you don’t believe me, here is a document that contains 10,000 buries from that day and none of them seem to be buries for the I’m in like with You story.

The issue was also discussed by Deep Jives, Paris Lemon, Graywolf, Cameron…

Some say that Digg doesn’t learn lessons from the revolt that happened recently because according to them, until now Digg is still censoring the contents submitted to Digg. However, I see a different point of view… Digg really learns lessons from that revolt. That’s the reason why they immediately implemented things like:

1. Stories submitted with questionable content should not reach the frontpage. It should be buried immediately while no one noticed it. And it should be done by the Digg software itself not by employees.
2. Digg employees should double check of all the stories submitted and being digged, especially those that passed through the Digg censoring software.

Now, what I really wonder is, how should the digger react with this? Submitting questionable content many times will never succeed with this new tweak of Digg software.

So, I think, if Digg users want to revolt again against Digg censorship, the right thing they should do is leave the Digg and transfer to Digg’s competitors. Yeah, that’s the best thing they should do.
