CES Prank:
At CES 2008 the Gizmodo crew and more specifically Richard Blakeley were involved in a show room prank. Using a device called a "TV-B-Gone" the crew turned off the television sets of several of the exhibiting vendors. The entire stunt was taped, and the recording shows staff scrambling to get the televisions turned back on. After posting the video to the Gizmodo web site the prank was thoroughly discussed by technology community. The CES staff later released a statement that Blakeley was banned from CES and they may pursue additional litigation. -
