Yesterday saw a momentous event in Internet history to be sure.
Whether it has a positive or negative outcome remains to be seen.

A user posted a link on Digg.com to a line of code on a blog. That line of code allows one to unlock certain copy protection features on an HD DVD.   Under order from a Cease and Desist declaration by the AACS, claiming it violates copyright law, Digg administrators removed the posting.

What followed was a growing attempt by Digg users to repost the code while Digg administrators struggled to remove it and ban users who did so. Digg cited its need to operate within the law or face consequences that might topple the company.

But the drums of the anonymous army were already beating. They had found something cool to do and an instant cause had been created. The users in question ignored the administrators and flooded the site with postings of the “illegal” code.

If I were younger, if I believed that mob were completely genuine, if I didn’t personally know the founder Kevin Rose, I too would likely have played this game. I would have pretended to be a brave warrior standing up for the rights of the oppressed. Eagerly telling the schoolyard the next day about my heroics and subsequent Cafepress souvenir shirt.
