The Nmap Revisited


Following up on this
previous Boingboing post, reader Avi Solomon says, "Looks like the entire Nmap episode from the geek-themed porn DVD "HaXXXor 1" is available for download. Happy Compiling :)" For those readers who do not spend twelve or more hours a day behind a computer, here's some background from the site hosting the clips:
Nmap was demonstrated in the Matrix Reloaded. Nmap trivia buffs may also know that Nmap source code was displayed in the 2000 movie Battle Royale ( [Screen1] [Screen2] [Trivia]). Lesser known is that it was featured in a 3rd movie after these two appearances. Nmap made the leap from Science Fiction to "hacker pr0n" with the release of HaXXXor Volume 1: No Longer Floppy. In a seven-minute chapter, the lovely E-Lita walks us through downloading, compiling, and executing Nmap while keeping our attention by methodically removing her clothing :). You can buy the DVD (cover image) for $10 at conferences such as Defcon or from the HaXXXor Girls web site. It contains other chapters such as "Naked Dumpster Diving" and "Young Love (Of Government Encryption)".
