History of Hacking

Jason points out a wonderful documentary from the Discovery channel, detailing the evolution of Hacking, from the blind Phreakers who manipulated early POTs telephone systems, to Steve Wozniak and the development of the personal computer. A great antithesis to the current vogue for demonising creative subversions of technology.
