Electronic arts- 0100101110101101.ORG

0100101110101101.ORG produced a virus, with the intent not to harm computers but to simply survive, to spread through computers and also spread in awarenes of people.
The virus code was not only spread digitally but also printed on t-shirts and postcards and before creating the virus they warned people about it, including major anti virus companies.
The main concept of this project it seems is to be to let people understand viruses better. However it has produced a lot of hysteria and it's uncertain whether this was also part of the plan..
