Digg has _a lot_ of content that slams Microsoft, promotes Linux, hails Apple,
and so forth. Microsoft would love to have some control over parts of these
pages.
Digg is no place for Microsoft fans. Digg is a place where technologists reside
and they see (and know) beyond that kissie-kissie Bill Gates stuff that
invaded mainstream press.
Rest assured Microsoft will pollute Digg with its disinformation. I have
written to their staff about it, so hopefully someone will take notice.
