The History Of Hacking
Documentary
During the 70's, the phone
phreaks or phone hackers
appeared: they learned ways to
hack the telephonic system and
make phone calls for free.
John Draper built a 'blue box'
that could do this and the
Esquire magazine published an
article on how to build them.
Fascinated by this discovery,2
kids, Steve Wozniak and Steve
Jobs, decided to sell these
blue boxes, starting a
business friendship which
resulted in the founding of
Apple.
Getting their laughs and
skills from hacking and
cracking into primitive
computers and exploiting the
Arpanet (predecessor to the
internet), they created a
novelty that would become the
target of federal crackdown in
years to come.
