== Overview ==

Digg is a social news website that highlights user-contributed content based on their popularity which is determined by readers voting up and down stories. Digg has waived all copyright restrictions on its content through the CC0 public domain waiver. Digg content may include readers' comments, story titles, story descriptions, and all other user-contributed content on the Digg site.

== License Usage ==

Digg waives all copyright restrictions under the CC0 public domain waiver.

== Motivations ==

Previously, all Digg content was stated as in the public domain, but Digg went a step further by using the CC0 public domain waiver to ensure that its content would be available on more or less the same terms around the world.
