Excellent! Very detailed though. :-)

Heh, it's good to see someone pointing out that octets in IP addresses CANNOT exceed 255 (2^8 - 1) :-)
Most references to IP have (invalid) octets like 258, 234, 342, 640 etc. Shame, you'd think someone would have been available to avoid such silly stuff....

Cheers,

Brilliant! Very detailed trivia. Aside from that, love the message this movie brought through. 12 years ago, when you were talking about online identity theft, information phishing, people would think that you are just suffering from paranoia. 12 years later this has been part of our day in and day out online life, trying to protect our identity, our very own self. Again, thanks for the trivia page.
