09 f9 ****************
The above number (in its uncensored version) has made the internet go crazy. It can be used to break the copy protection on HD DVDs. I’m afraid that I’m not allowed to say more. If I do the DMCA will come and hunt me down and sue me. They’ve been attempting to censor the internet from every mention of it.

It is a humongous coincidence that the above number is very similar to my favorite number, which just so happens to be “09 f9 11 02 9d 74 e3 5b d8 41 56 c5 63 56 88 c0“. Maybe they are even the same number. I don’t know if they are, because of course I would never even think about That Other Number that the DMCA is going crazy about, let alone read it and compare it to my favorite number.

Anyways, I’m very upset that the DMCA is attempting to censor something that looks similar to my favorite number. Its been my favorite number for years. Now I’m going to get sued if I even say it?

I’ve created a small widget in protest. Here’s a picture:

If you’re interested in my very much, delayed tutorial on how to make widgets then feel free to look at this widget’s code. It is about the simplest widget possible and doesn’t even contain css or javascript.
