Well, not really but his code is.

^That's the video.
And here is the copy pasta.
The code is question seems to be from multiple programs which I had written way back in 2007-2008 to demonstrate the use of Raw Sockets in writing Packet Injection programs. Here is a list of the code files (GIST embeds at the end of the post) :
which are almost like a programmer's signature.
/* First Get the Interface Index */ followed by the code is there in all the files:
Here is the next couple of lines in the screenshot:
Most of the files listed above, contain the "Bind our raw socket to this interface */" as well followed by the sockaddr_ll structure fill:
The next part of the screenshot is partially cut:
So, I used the YouTube video to take a better shot:
"A simple write on the socket ..thats all it takes ! */" is the partial comment, which many of you may agree is an unconventional comment There is there in almost all the code files as well:
The last part of the screenshot is below:
Looks like this was from the Generic Packet Injection program, if you look closely:
The special effects guys seem to have removed most of the whitespace, so you see longer lines but it is clear to identify the code if you look close enough.
How do I feel about this? Great If not me, at least my code made it to a 3 second clip in a Hollywood Movie
Quirks:
Unlike others I do acknowledge that I copy pasted this from his website and I did add a link on top.

If not me, at least my code made it to a 3 second clip in a Hollywood Movie Quirks:
- I hope the code would be compiled before use!
- The source / destination MAC, IP, etc. are hardcoded in most of the scripts so hopefully the hacker in the movie changed them before using
- The Generic Packet Injection program just sends "A"* 1024 times onto the wire. This was just to demonstrate it's possible to send arbitrary data on the wire with raw sockets, even total garbage
