Publisher's 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?

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.

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.

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”
