Cyber Command Logo follies

So there's been a bunch of discussion about the string encoded in the US Cyber Command Logo. It turns out that it's not actually a code, it's just the MD5 hash of Cyber Command's mission statement (specifically the version of the mission statement without an extra "-" in it.)
I guess I shouldn't be amazed by the fact that so many people don' t know the difference between a hash and an actual code. Depressed, maybe, but not amazed.
