that's an interesting question in general for digg in that reposts of very old stories occur frequently, and new stories about old situations are posted uncritically. my take is that digg users are generally too young to have experienced them the first time around - even if it was just a few years ago, and that digg itself is too new to have developed anything in the way of an institutional memory.

i like digg as far as it goes and i visit daily but that's not to say it can't stand improvement, beginning with the creepy sensation i often get that i've stumbled into an online version of the lord of the flies.

the first story might be revisit to 1999 ... but the second story isn't so much
add first story to second story

maybe title should be ' NSA and future of windows '

Glad to know I'm not the only one.
I quit visiting digg because of that.
reddit is much better for me, especially with the quality of the comments there.

as for MS including government spyware; that should not be a surprise to anyone.
