This reminds me of the old "code on a shirt" tradition - MIT used to sell shirts with Lisp one-liners. What I find interesting is that the script actually runs. Most of these novelty shirts just print something that looks like code but is meaningless. The fact that someone at Akamai went through the trouble of writing a self-evaluating obfuscated script for a retail product is either a great prank or someone's pet project that made it to production.
