  • Summary

  • [Contains explicit content] Hackers aren't solitary loners. They're organised, temporary teams who come together for a purpose — to take down a multinational or expose security weakness.

    Geoff White, Channel 4 News's former Technology Reporter speaks to T-Flow, a member of the Lulzsec hacking group, who is now working for the good guys. Why do they do it and how can a team of strangers trust each other?

an insightful look into hackers headspace

Gives a pretty good overview of the who what why and how come? of what makes hackers tick, demolishes stereotypes of loners in basements and explains why most are so young.

Speech

Why is Audible allowing a narrator with a speech impediment to narrate anything. Who wants to listen to a narrator who pronounces “story” as “stowy”, “narrator” as “nawator”

Would've been 5 stars but...

Some of the speakers are very hard to understand. I'm not sure of their native language but they need to take a few extra English courses. Otherwise really good.

Evolution of the Hacker

This episode really talks about how hackers basically started doing what they do on the Dark Web as a method of communicating with one another. The hackers actually would coordinate with one another and would pay each other in escrow on other sites to do certain things. A lot of the hackers that they talked to it sounded like they were awaiting trial or hadn't been charged with a crime YET. They did, however, talk about what they would do on a daily basis in terms of attacking websites, cloning credits cards, etc.
