Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live onstage during hacker conference
‚A hacktivist remotely wiped three white supremacist websites live onstage during their talk at a hacker conference last week, with the sites yet to return online.
The pseudonymous hacker, who goes by Martha Root — dressed as Pink Ranger from the Power Rangers — deleted the servers of WhiteDate, WhiteChild, and WhiteDeal in real time at the end of a talk at the annual Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg, Germany….‘

How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE
‚ICE has been invading U.S. cities, targeting, surveilling, harassing, assaulting, detaining, and torturing people who are undocumented immigrants. They also have targeted people with work permits, asylum seekers, permanent residents (people holding “green cards”), naturalized citizens, and even citizens by birth. ICE has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on surveillance technology to spy on anyone—and potentially everyone—in the United States. It can be hard to imagine how to defend oneself against such an overwhelming force.
But a few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology….‘

Whistleblower drops 'largest ever' #ICE leak to unmask agents
‚A whistleblower has released the identities of approximately 4,500 ICE and Border Patrol agents, marking what may be the largest data breach in the Department of Homeland Security's history. The leak, published on ICE List, was triggered by national outrage following the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent….‘

I don't talk fashion here often, but it's one of those interests of mine that is both latent and very rarely explored.
(You know those interests of your's that you have both neither the time nor the money to pour into them? So you enjoy the topic when it's brought up but don't have deep involvement. Anyhoo!)
The quoted post is about popculture depictions of the aesthetics of hacking in the 90's as seen through a very 90's hacking movie.
"Hackers" is not an accurate depiction of hacking.
"Hackers" is an accurate depiction of how hacking felt.
It is an "artistic depiction" of hacking.
I spent my highschool years hacking along the border of Texas and Mexico. My clothes were very typical of a highschooler then. T-shirt with edgy saying, under an unbuttoned short sleeve button-up "overshirt" on top of relaxed-fit to loose-fit jeans and tennis shoes.
I thought of the clothes in the movie "Hackers" as avant-garde and the type of thing you would only see in NYC proper (I had only experienced New York through movies) or the type of thing you would (separately in my mind) see in movies.
It was very punk and very hacker to me.
This was also the time that The Matrix came out. Another - albeit from the complete opposite end - depiction of Hacker culture and aesthetics.
Neither looked good in real life 😂 but they looked amazing in our minds.

Al Gore Invented the Internet.
Joe Biden invented PGP encryption.
Cypherpunks write code.
Joe Biden gifted humanity with PGP encryption (in a roundabout way). Phil Zimmermann created PGP in response to a anti-privacy bill clause proposed by Senator Joe Biden.
https://www.americanscientist.org/article/cypherpunks-write-code
"In 1990, the FBI launched an over-the-top crackdown on computer hackers, known as Operation Sundevil. This was swiftly followed, in early 1991, by a proposed piece of U.S. Senate legislation that would force electronic communications service providers to hand over people’s personal data. (The key clause, S.266, was pushed by the then chairman of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Joe Biden.)"
"On learning of Biden’s S.266 clause, Zimmermann feverishly set out to complete the project, almost losing his house in the process. When he finished his software in 1991, he published it all online, free for anyone who wanted to use it. He called it “Pretty Good Privacy,” or PGP for short, and within weeks it had been downloaded and shared by thousands of people around the world. “Before PGP, there was no way for two ordinary people to communicate over long distances without the risk of interception,” said Zimmermann in a later interview. “Not by phone, not by FedEx, not by fax.” It remains the most widely used form of email encryption to this day."Joe Biden's first panopticon bill:
https://www.congress.gov/bill/102nd-congress/senate-bill/266
"SEC. 2201. COOPERATION OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS PROVIDERS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT. It is the sense of Congress that providers of electronic communications services and manufacturers of electronic communications service equipment shall ensure that communications systems permit the government to obtain the plain text contents of voice, data, and other communications when appropriately authorized by law."As they say in Texas: That dinosaur don't hunt.
