True, but there's also the massive anarchistic user base. /r/all is/was yelling censorship top to bottom. Starting to look a lot like the Digg Revolt[1] circa '07 regarding the 09 F9 .. censorship.
Not really, during the aacs thing digg literally stopped to function under the weight of 09 f9 subissions. In comparison I've seen more pro-Ron Paul sentimennt on the front page at any given time than I have prop 19 stuff today.
Definitely true, I distinctly recall the first few submissions on 09 f9 in the evening, then the next day they started doing bans arround midday, and then finally the site came crashing down about 24 hours after it originally started.
