Wow, I went to read the article and completely forgot you said "same domain". I was fooled for a while and couldn't believe I'd never heard of it before. Very facinating indeed. It'd be pretty wild if that stuff was real :)
It took me a while to understand that it was fiction too. I spent a few minutes anxiously pondering if I could somehow have overlooked one of the most important cryptographic event in decades. It's very well made.
