Kevin Rose - Standing Ground

This is a real meme:

“You’d rather see Digg go down fighting than bow down to a bigger company. We hear you,” said Rose. “And effective immediately we won’t delete stories or comments containing the code and will deal with whatever the consequences might be. If we lose, then what the hell, at least we died trying.”

Digg has retained their independence for a long time now - with many lurkers waiting to buy them up. Is this their moment to cash in that indie equity and put it all on the line? Will they come out the other side of this better positioned in the market? Or is this a sucker’s bet made by kids that don’t have a legal leg to stand on?
