Geek movie : Antitrust
March 15th, 2008 by Vineet | No Comments »Watched the movie “Antitrust” yesterday. It’s a movie that promotes Open Source.
There’s this guy who is the CEO of a proprietary company called NURV and they are developing satellite communication system, called Synaptec, connecting all communication devices.
There are these three students who believe in Open Source and have developed some cool product and are going to start a company. But NURV wants to hire them to finish their work in time. One of them says yes but the other two did not .
One of the two guys who refused to work with NURV later on manages to break into the Synaptec codes and actually removes a bug. Soon he is murdered.
His friend who went to work with NURV suspects that NURV got him killed . He begins investgating secretly and finds that NURV had actually setup a network to physically hack programmers, kill them and steal their codes.
This guy , to reveal it to the world works hard to develop Synaptec before time and uses Synaptec itself to capture all TV stations and communication channels and revealed the truth to the whole world….EVEN THE SOURCE CODE OF SYNAPTEC.
All in All a must watch (specially for geeks)
