Once a domain name gets published, it is forever in the footprint of the DNS. The fans at DIGG have banded together to replicate and spread a code that defeats the copy protection of Blu-Ray and HD DVD discs. The secret code stopped being a secret when a hacker posted the code on to a web bulletin board in February, since then lawyers from the A.A.C.S have been serving DMCA take down notices on websites that hosted the number. The cat and mouse game continued for several months until on May 1st, users noticed the news story about the secret number disappeared off of DIGG’s homepage. The users revolted and flooded the site with even more news stories about the secret number. It became clear DIGG users controlled the site and it would be hard to suppress the number.
Ryan McGuire of the Cedar City, Utah was clever enough to publish the secret number as a domain name. Which replicated the number to root servers all around the world and down into ISP’s DNS servers. Copies of the zone files are the fastest way to spread information. Zone File replication is unstoppable and no DMCA request can take a string out of it. Even a UDRP would only allow the transfer of the domain to another party. There is no action to remove a name once it has been published. It has already been replicated everywhere and thousands of copies are left in storage and in backup facilities like DomainTools, Verisign, and the Department of Defense.
If you want to spread a secret, domain names are the way to do it. 09-f9-11-02-9d-74-e3-5b-d8-41-56-c5-63-56-88-c0.com
Domain names can never die, they can never be deleted, and there will always be a record of them. Domain Tasters will bring any domain name back from an inactive sleep if they ever getted turned off. No one can kill a good domain. We live in a digital age where domain names are very powerful and live forever.

Number can’t violate copyright, can they?
