Let's just admit that Aaron Swartz was The Greatest Hacker... which is why the US government relentlessly pursued him and caused him to die.

If you want to read realistic fiction about hackers... Where the hackers are actually helpful to society, "The girl with the dragon tattoo". That's a three books series published in Sweden, translated into English. The hero of the story is an investigative journalist exposing criminal plots. He uses a hacker named Lisbeth to sift through information and find the culprits

Do understad though. In all of this, mitnick was a hobo. No money, riding the wave as it came.

😅

Johnathan James also is one of the best

Legend eh? Until it's you that's violated. Or your grandmother's savings. Why don't these heroes hack attack adversary countries? Oh I forgot, that would take balls. Legends to me, are people I know that work hard and don't steal.

@@jerelsalazar7959 I understand your point, but we must admit that we have Legends and Satan, Demons, for the Ultimate Evil, and all of these things Good and Bad influenced Human Civilisation, and our past, present, and future must be remembered Let's draw conclusions because who does not remember the Past repeats the Same Mistakes! As a European, I never ever expected war to explode in my lifetime, but now in the 21st century is a fact that 600km from me in Ukraine...

that is true !!

I feel like one thing though is they also had limited resources to catch him back then. Now it might be easier to catch these sorts of people possibly.

The "sources" weren't as limited as you think. He didn't come up with this on his own, he learned it from others. Of course, he was very good at it. (what we call "social engineering" today.)

@@Sniper-ng5nd Limited by modern standards. Phone calls and cell phones were very much traceable back then, too. CALEA didn't exist yet, so it wasn't exactly real-time. Changing his ESN ("cloning") meant his phone was linked to someone else. That's harder to do these days as the networks are far more integrated - the same ESN showing up more than once can be detected _automatically_ within seconds. Locating an ESN within the network took a while; locating a phone number is instantaneous, because that's how the PSTN functions. (esp. for _mobile_ phones.) Moving around, changing your identity makes you just as had to find today as 40 years ago. Of course, changing your identity has gotten much harder, because it's now a going concern.

I feel the opposite, it is way harder to remain hidden in 2024 for a list of reasons, starting with the fact the are more and more cameras with face recognition everywhere

There is one, Takedown, but it's made after markovs and shimomuras accounts, i.e it's not that accurate or flattering. It's a decent hacker movie though, if you look at it in a vacuum. But someone should really do a movie based on Mitnick's story from ghost in the wire.

‘Takedown”, (also, “Track Down” in some countries)2000. A bad movie based on a (in my opinion) horribly biased book by John Markoff of the NYT, who involved himself in the investigation and eventual prosecution driven by the revenge by one of Kevin’s foils, Tsutomu Shimomura.

Kevin’s story needs a new take. I nominate Jonathan Littman’s book, “The Fugitive Game” as well as Kevin’s autobiography. Kevin Poulsen can donate his time. He was there, but shouldn’t profit any further from his participation in…related…events.

Watch Mr. Robot.

@@ss_avsmt I like Mr. Robot but they are not even close to the same.

I swear to god. I laughed my ass off at this story like never before. This should be made into a comedy😂😂. What an absolute legend. Has a film been made about him?

@@TheSubpremeState A fairly subpar movie was "adapted" from the book Takedown. Of course, in the US, the movie was called "Track Down" because we're stupid.

Mitnick inspired a lot of people, his books are fantastic and his legendary status cannot be denied. RIP

@@doggonemess1 I think that may be due to the huge controversy surrounding the film's release (and creation) in the US. Many in the hacking community were up in arms over it. I believe it pretty much destroyed the film's US release. Don't remember exactly what went down and how it went down but I know there were protests outside of the studio's HQ and 2600 mag (of course) were a big part of it all. Oooh yeah.. Much of it had to do with the fact that kevin was still awaiting trial, I believe! And the film was portraying him exactly as Markhoff/Shimomura depicted him in their book, Takedown (which Kevin vehemently disagreed with). Anyway it's kind of interesting. I don't remember all the details after all this time but I'm sure there is a lot of info on youtube alone.

@@intuit13 Thanks for the info!

as a greyhat myself, it's almost never about the $ after a certain point. Mitnick was a greyhat, change my mind.

Like Houdini he may come back through the internet like a Patron Saint.

i worked for a financial institution. they would send out fishing emails to the staff. it was appalling how many failed the test.

great idea! this video clip was fascinating.

I was thinking the same thing then I came across your comment.

There are Kevin movies: other comments here can tell you about 'em.

I helped to make them one of our training vendors and do wonder about that. Keven made cameos in some of the training videos - I thought that was an awesome touch. TBO, so many of our employees are actually eager to watch his training videos. THAT, is a sign of his genious. Kevin is finally FREE. RIP.

If I understand you correctly, your contention is that Mitnick had both high level social and technical skills. I agree. You seem to have a higher opinion of Jobs than I though. If it was not for Woz and his contributions, Jobs would have probably had modest success and/or sold weed out of a VW bus. That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

lolololololololol. He did

Look up Mike Virus. A way better story

They made a crap movie many years ago. The true documentary about the ordeal you should see is called: FREEDOM DOWNTIME

He’s passed now.

I thought that was weird too, but Kevin specifically mentioned that in his memoir related to this incident: "Working as fast as I can, I install a “remote access Trojan,” a type of malicious software that gives me full access to the system, so I can log keystrokes, grab password hashes, and even instruct the webcam to take pictures of the person using the computer." (prologue)

​@Newsthink so you thought you should parrot that line uncritically? You said he did these things, not that he claims he did these things.

What are you saying??@@CatFish107

The first webcam was developed in 1991, and became common in use in 1993.

​@CatFish107 He said it. It's not their job to investigate all of the claims of everyone involved. Only to document what THEIR claims are.

Such intelligent men! It is fascinating how the brain works!
