A profile of Christopher Doyon, better known as Commander X of the hacker group Anonymous, is presented through interviews with those associated to him in one form or another, as well as interviews directly with him. Topics covered in the profile include how he became interested in computers in general, he generally being a proverbial hippie, how he became acquainted with Anonymous and he joining the group despite their differences not only in values but goals as an organization, Anonymous' more high profile work which attracted the attention and ire of the FBI, his more public efforts despite it being somewhat no longer anonymous, and how he now views his status in light of the FBI.
