The Hacker Prince: Hacking in the 1980's
The true story of the misadventures of a clever teen 80's hacker, and his hapless foray into the secret world of elite hackers.
I've been a fan of Michael Wilkerson because of some of his other work having to do with bio-geology and titanology - yes that's the study of giants and their petrified remains. Fascinating subject, btw.
I didn't know that this bio-geologist has a fascinating past having to do with hacking. This is before "hacking" was even really a thing. "Digital trespassing" was a more accurate description.
Michael Princeton Wilkerson is self-publishing a book about his past, detailing the process of early hacking, his encounters with the FBI and authorities, his network of fellow-hackers and recruiting for "Hackers from Heaven" to fight human trafficking.
He is running a kickstarter campaign that's in it's final week. If you're interested in picking up a copy of his book, consider making a donation to the campaign.

Thanks for the share, I've seen Eric Dubays's video on giants and I'm convinced.
History is not what we're told, that's for sure.

Awesome, the book and kickstarter look something i will check out. i remember going to my local "meetups" back in the day with my fellow computer nerds for chatting, swaps etc..
The old BBS days with slow dial-ups. I wonder if the old BBS still exist?
I ran up quite a few large phone bills back then!!! hehehe
Thanks for the review. I am going to see if I can find The Hacker Prince. Thanks for sharing.
Hopefully it'll get published in the next few years.
