http://digg.com/world_news/Youtube_pulls_Anonymous_Message_to_Church_of_Scientology?offset=51

Currently has 800+ diggs today, the main page has around 200 as the highest Digg at the moment.

Quoted from story:
Nearly 2.5 Million Views and one huge worldwide protest later, Youtube has taken down the original Anonymous Message to Scientology citing "terms of use violations" We at Digg don't like censorship.

End quote.

This is ridiculous. I can understand Google/Youtube doing this because there was a bomb threat video (either some anonymous went overboard and screwed them, if he did he may have screwed them all; others say it's BS propagated by the Church of Scientology), but why is Digg keeping the story buried?

does it really matter?

i just became a scientologist, its alright

The Digg algorithm can be shaky sometimes. I've seen lower-ranked stories on the front page while higher dugg ones are not.

I probably should've said this in the topic, but what does Massassi think of internet censorship?

Depends whose modding.

Wait, so upholding their rules = censorship?

I'm fairly sure posting public threats aren't within their T&C.

The video removed was not the threat video.

Fact: MB is fat

This is just going to be fuel to the fire for anon.
Scientology doesn't understand that ignorance is the best way to win.
Not that i want them to win, ofcourse.

...You mean the one when anonymous basically tell Scientology to watch their back? Sure sounds like a threat to me.

Also they put it back up.

I guess you could say that the initial video was threatening in the sense that they are trying to bring Scientology down, but the video in question was not physically threatening like the bomb threat video. Nevertheless, the initial video was a statement in my opinion rather than a threat.

Also yea, they did put it back up (after people re-uploaded it a bunch of times).

Just because it doesn't involve physical violence doesn't mean it's not a threat.

Since Anonymous IS Anonymous, what's to stop the Church of Scientology from 'planting' several agents with very obscure links to the Church who will create Anonymous videos to discredit Anonymous and help create public outcry against and internal division within Anonymous?

That's what I would do if I were the Church of Scientology.

Awww, imsoshort finally found a group of people that accept him.


Too bad it's a big group of idiots and douchebags.

I think TE picked the wrong group. He would have been better accepted by Scientology. Plus, it would have been fun to watch his descent into further lulz.

Then again, maybe it's best that he didn't become a Scientologist. He could have tried to convert us.

also remmeber: this is a gay fad

this guy is a SP *****

lolz let's tell everyone we know he's a pedo and does drugs and post it on the news and host it on our webpage
