    Thanks for positive reviews!

    So far some great reviews on blogs out there; such as:

    "I can’t really express just how great the movie was. I would definitely recommend people should download it."

    "This documentary shows the three hats of the hacking community, and how nearly all of them are under fire from the mainstream. No matter if you are a destructive, greedy black hat, an ambiguous grey hat, or even a moral, means-well white hat, it appears as though the established order is out to strike these brave men and women down, who are merely curious at the ways things work and have ideas as to how they should work. It's a great contemporary documentary on the state of cyber-warfare, exploit disclosure, and hacker ethos. Truly a superior counterpart to 2008's Hackers Are People Too. Not as funny, but a lot more intriguing, inspiring, and infuriating (yay for vowels). Definitely a must for hackers and everyone interested in the online community in general."

    Thanks from the author/ filmmaker!

    I am really overwhelmed with this positive support. I was so happy to have a place to voice an opinion and when Torrent Freak was kind enough to let me know that my Director's Cut was about to be leaked, I had to quickly write this article, and actually wrote it on my laptop while going through a car wash. They kindly edited all my mistakes that night, but perhaps the quick stream of consciousness writing worked. Again, I'm very grateful for all these proactive responses and just overwhelmed!

    I also appreciate Anonymous Coward presenting a counter-point. We need that always to test theories. I may go point by point to explain to him why he is wrong in this case if time permits, but basically invite him to re-read my full article and realize most of his challenges are addressed there. On a side note, Anonymous sounds just like my ex-producer! It's eerie!

    Thanks again!
