There’s been some “conspiracy theory” going around with Digg and one of its founder, Kevin Rose.
To cut the story short — a blog got banned for exposing the so-called Digg Army which abuses the system.
Well, any system is prone to abuse and gaming, but co-founder Kevin Rose was allegedly involve. Talk about gaming your own creation.
Stories abound and people Digging these stories are getting their accounts banned and their IP addresses blocked. Now that could really spark people’s curiosity.

I can see slashdot fans smirking in one corner.
