It might help if you told us in what year you think you saw that.

@Randallw 201238 Yes I think this is it. Thank you!
I watched a bit of this anime back in school during film club or something similar. It's could be a series but I'm not 100% sure. There was this part where someone sent out a mass email with a long encryption code which one of the characters solves in his closet or something then sends the answer back. Later a popular social media gets hacked and said before character realises it was him who did it.
I also remember there was some kind of family conflict as this guy walks in and people seem to dislike him, like there was some kind of past incident.
Also all these events took place in one of those traditional Japanese houses.
Any help would be appreciated!
Edit: It was Summer Wars. Thanks Randallw 201238!
