龜趣來嘻

不必擔心操弄，因為在Web 2.0的網路上，你看得見誰在操弄、你看得見他們如何操弄、而且，要反操弄比在傳統媒體的時代容易太多了；如果一個Web 2.0網站被惡意攻陷，那就換一家服務吧！就那麼簡單。

Political blogger Michelle Malkin was one of the first to complain that groups of conservative or liberal Digg users were acting to remove posts from pundits on the other side. More recently, another blogger analyzed Digg home page stories and concluded that a small group of powerful Digg users, acting together, control a large percentage of total home page stories.

To some this is troubling because it removes the supposedly democratic nature of Digg. Unlike newspapers like the New York Times, where a small group of editors decide what is 「news」 and therefore included in the paper, Digg is a more meritocritous and democratic process where the readers actually decide what is newsworthy. If Digg is being corrupted by a relatively small group of users, the difference between Digg and the NYT becomes less clear.
