    I didn't understand what was going on the first time I watched the video because I didn't read the paragraph below.
    Now that I have read it, hilarious.

    In reaction to "Gizmodogate," the gadget blog's prank of shutting down flat-screen displays on the show floor and during demos at CES (see Bloggers behaving badly), the conference's organizer, the Consumer Electronics Association, sent me this statement:

    You just know that guy got fired, and Gizmodo is probably barred from any further shows.

    I think Gizmodo said that they didn't care? Though they are banned for life (gizmodo, not just the one person).
    Ask me about my self-esteem!
