I switched from slashdot to Digg. Digg to Reddit when Digg started censoring the Blu-Ray decryption key (before v4), then was on Reddit until RIF shut down. I’m scheduled to get my 16 year badge this year I think. I haven’t posted or commented since RIF shut down though.
I’m debating whether to sell my account or delete it. $75 could buy a lot of printer filament.
Lol I found you and sent a howdy your way hahahah both of us May 2nd 2007 too. Same Bishop handle I had on Digg too, and … really everything back to my Fidonet handle. I’m old.
Man I totally forgot about those keys leaking and all the corpo shitheels deleting posts that contain it and then everyone getting shirts with the DVD key on the front and the BR key on the back.

Weird!!
Interesting. I remembered the key being used for HD DVD, but apparently it was both.
That’s when I left as well and watched their v4 transition from afar.
