Here’s a post in which the Diggbats are freaking out because Digg banned one of the most insane anti-rational conspiracy sites on the internet. You can tell how upset they are by the egregious abuse of punctuation: Digg - Digg bans PrisonPlanet.com!!!

In a sane world this wouldn’t even be an issue, because no one would pay attention to the sick delusions that are Prison Planet’s stock in trade. But read the comments at Digg—the derangement is amazing. These people actually think Prison Planet is a news site.

UPDATE at 3/1/07 9:26:25 pm:

In other news related to Digg, Wired magazine has a piece on the Bury Brigade.

And then there’s a report on buying votes on Digg.

Meanwhile, Techcrunch isn’t happy with Wired’s articles: Digg Should Sue Wired.
