Did you know that you could get into really big trouble if you post the code beginning with 09 F9 11 02 on your website ? It is very likely that a takedown notice will be send to the owner of the website as soon as the RIAA, the AACS or some of their lawyers find your website. You might be wondering why they are making such a big deal about this code that continues to be 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 which only some users might identify as the code to rule them all.. aka the processing key that unlocks the content of every HD-DVD available up to this point.
Did you know that this was the processing key that ends with 63 56 88 C0 ? I did not until I read an article where the AACS sent some takedown notices to websites owners who mentioned the key. So, what is actually happening now is that this key will be reproduced on thousands of websites who report about this takedown notices, it will be available in caches, in forum entries and in many other places including custom created T-Shirts, Mugs and Mousepads. It seems that the takedown notice somehow backfired on the AACS, don’t you think ?
You mean 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 ?

Just doing an experiment....
[for the rest of y’all, looking at that series of numbers above, you wouldn’t think something like that is as serious as Osama bin Ladin, would you???]
hahahaha...excellent post...
Our totally broken intellectual property system is melting down as we watch. Good riddance.
Really really cute, but the code has been out for a couple of months, at least in cracker circles. (Thats another term that will need lots of explaining later.)
It seems this stuff only to gets coverage when it hits a new, somewhat successful, lefty blog and their administrators cave to the dinosaurs. Flash, Wikipedia has been suppressing these entries for some time now, where’s the outrage?
Sadly, less than a tenth of a percent of the people who have seen the code have any idea what to do with it.
