This is a great tool for users of DIGG because, after all, DIGG is a community where you will have a lot of "friends". Using their SHOUT system I will get the same shout from 10 different people. Because we are share the same likes and happen to have common friends. So this is annoying to get 10 emails for the same DIGG. Since DIGG is too lazy to add a feature that will not shout to someone who has already DUGG (Honestly how much FUC&ing "SERVER LOAD" can this be?), a clever person created the Firefox extension that does just this. I created a post about it and had 200+ diggs before I got banned. Now, almost all the users who Dugg my article have been banned as well. I am thinking of starting a F!@# DIGG campaign. I mean, what punks. Ah my email from Digg just came in, if you have read their TOS is is VERY VAGUE (Please explain to me how this hurts your SERVER LOAD!!!) "Hi from Digg.com, Your account was reported to us as being in violation of our Terms of Service (http://digg.com/tos) by promoting scripts that are in clear violation of Digg's Terms Of Service.

It's a game, be liked by the community, but without going too far. I think this is a great loss for digg, as he will end up somewhere else, working "against" them.
