It was released under a Creative Commons license on recommendation from the EFF, so that the U.S. House of Chambers could not stop it (yes, they tried!).
The movie is a documentary of sorts, featuring two people who go to conferences posing as high-profile businesses, promoting oft-ridiculous products to make a point...the only problem is, people keep taking them seriously (even Halliburtons SurvivaBall).
At one point they end up live on BBC news and inadvertently wipes $1B+ off a companys public stock value.
It is hilarious, and well worth the watch.
