We had one, his name was Aaron Swartz.
He did great work, had awesome projects. But he pissed off some of the powers that be, and they decided to litigate. They did what they could to crush him and it worked. Ultimately he committed suicide in prison.
I think we never deserved him and he knew it.
Now I think the best we have is Cory Doctorow, but he’s more of an open source tech evangelist than a hacker. He’s fighting the good fight, but not by building things.
closest thing we had to it was arrested in a Mcdonalds because some dumbass making less than 12 dollars and hour dropped a dime on him.
Can’t have robin hood without some class solidarity.
Luigi is innocent, we were playing videogames together
The deification of Luigi really pisses me off because he didn’t do shit to help anyone. Robin Hood wasn’t a deranged murderer, he stole from the rich to help the poor. What the fuck did Luigi actually accomplish with his idiotic “plan”? It just shows how dire the current situation is that people are desperately latching onto that assclown as some kind of revolutionary, when in reality he is nothing of the sort.
In the aftermath there was a wave of insurance companies approving procedures they had been stalling for a while. People’s cancer treatments were finally approved and a multitude of common folk where allowed to live because the rich realized how vulnerable they are.
Keep telling yourself that, it’s a nice story to fantasize about but I don’t personally buy it. I wonder if you have any hard data supporting that claim
lol they aren’t going to pay you for your service either, turncoat.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
There’s a reason Mr Robot is still incredibly popular
That, and because it’s at least moderately accurate to how actual infosec breaches work
“Fight club for nerds afraid to get punched” is my favorite description, even tho Elliot routinely gets his ass beat.
And modern day guillotine while at it.
The neat thing is that guillotine technology has advanced quite far since the French revolution
I need to rewatch Tucker and Dale vs Evil.
