This is a little bit on the geekier side of things than my usual posts, but I think it might have some important impact. The number you see above and below: 09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0 (Link to coolest # pic ever) Is a hexadecimal number that allows the copying of HD-DVD's. it was posted at Digg.com and later deleted by the Digg staff in an effort to appease their sponsor who is calling publishing of the code an infringement of intellectual property rights. Now the number is showing up in post after post at Digg and they are banning members left and right in an effort to get things under control. It is a revolt against intellectual property rights. Here is my position...fuck intellectual property rights. I am a creative person, what I create can be stolen...so be it. If that happens, I can create more, the person who stole it cannot create more of what I can create. This goes for music, writing, code, or anything else. I support file sharing, copying of music, movies, and anything else, and all of the above. Go ahead, steal my creations. You won't be able to show that you created them first and if you can make some money off of what I have done, I am sure that the effect on my ego will be more than enough to make up for it. Below is an excerpt to the story I found and a link:
