This is the best thing i saw today, it put a smile on my face. We are in the right place. I wish i could also say that it's because the revolution is back on, but unfortunately it just means that Mastodon is still so small that 50 people posting something makes it the trending topic 🤷‍♀️ it's not a coincidence either, the two topics are deeply connected, there's a reason why the name of our movement was a date with a hashtag. i'll try to write more about this in the next days #15M #Hackerhistory ❤️‍🔥

I spoke with @berniework for @CypherCon #HackerHistory

Bill had some great stories about how he started out helping his Dad and eventually found himself working at phone company trying to sell TV and a TV company trying to sell phones

It's a really fun story

Blast from the past!

Here's a vintage recording from the @2600 Voice BBS (c. 1990s) featuring details on the Manchester meetup at the iconic Cyberia Internet Cafe on Oxford Road.

(Also includes details on Bristol and London meetings).

I am doing a research project on the history of doxing, which has involved a lot of scouring through various old #bbs list serves, etc. I have found many of them so amusing that I've decided I'm going to share screen shots regularly here! Thank you the #defacto archive for this one. Signature by the Amiga crew in 1993 #internethistory #warez #hackerhistory #realfriendshiprulesbusinesssucks

this one is notable because it's our (very) short lived hacker collective AENTiKLOKWAiZ - we'd already drifted apart by the time this was made but I liked the logo a lot so I reused it for a while

A new @CypherCon #HackerHistory is out!

This time I'm talking to Dr. Laura Scherling, EdD, Rachael Tubbs, and Ben Schmerler. Laura wrote a book titled "The Future of Hacking" and Rachael and Ben join us because IoT Village is ten years old (time sure does fly), and are part of Laura's book.

It's a super fun conversation where we cover some past, present, and future of hacking

I had a chat with David Bernstein on the @CypherCon #HackerHistory podcast

David tells us all about his experience in emergency management. David has seen a ton of wild events, and has some really interesting commentary about how emergency management and infosec collide. David isn't what many would consider a traditional hacker, but it's clear he has had incredible impact over the years.
