4. OLD AND NEW HACKERS
- www.fiu.edu
- Old Hackers, New Hackers: What's the Difference?.
- Apparently, to people enamored of the 'old school' of hackers, like Steven Levy or Clifford Stoll, there is a big difference. Indeed, to the 'old style' MIT/Stanford hackers, they resent the bestowal of their honored title on 'those people' by the media. ... according to these 'old school' hackers, hacking meant a willingness to make technology accessible and open, a certain 'love affair' with the computer which meant "they would rather code than sleep. ...
- But what about the 'new' hackers? Many of the 'old' hackers think they don't deserve the name, preferring to call them 'computer criminals,' 'vandals,' 'crackers,' 'miscreants,' or in a purely generational swipe, 'juvenile delinquents. ... And the old school hackers resent this. Many of the new hackers aren't good programmers; they are just people without ethics who have no reservations about swiping passwords, codes, software, and other information and trading them with their friends. ...
- Most of the old hackers of the 60s are of course now living in the 90s - Baby Boomers who, like their ex-hippie friends, went from 'freak' to 'straight,' finding jobs in computer security firms and corporate software conglomerates. ... But then, Levy rants about those great hackers who founded Apple Computer and launched the PC revolution - those same ex-phreaks, Jobs and Wozniak, who actually allowed their company to patent their system hardware and software!.
- And all the old 'hackers' go to great pains to define themselves apart from the new breed of 'hackers,' always groaning in angst when the label continues to be applied to them. I would argue that the hackers of the 90s are not so different from the hackers of the 60s, that indeed, the same exploratory, antiauthoritarian, liberatory impulses are at work; it is simply that the hackers of the 60s do not understand the situation in which we live, and this is probably because they read 60s hippie lit rather than 90s cyberpunk SF. ... the 'old hackers' are simply too comfortable to be afflicted. ...
- According to Levy, the differences between the old and new hackers are stark and clear. ... For Levy, the old hackers were computer wizards, but the new hackers are computer terrorists, always searching for new forms of electronic vandalism or maliciousness without thought of the consequences.
- Old-style MIT 'hackers' were rather well-known for getting around locks of both the physical and electronic variety. Is there such a difference between the righteous anger of the MIT hacker toward the IBM 'priesthood' who kept him away from the massive mainframe, and the 90s hacker who feels righteous anger over being prevented access from huge commercial databases without an expensive account? The old MIT hackers were also known for their exploration of the phone system, and exploring 'hacks' to make calls to unsuspecting places for free. Indeed, many of the early hackers were phone phreaks, plain and simple, ripping off service from the phone company (THE company, AT & T, alias Ma Bell, back then), which they resented for its refusal to share the technical information about telephony.

- A clear definition is difficult because the word has changed since it came into existence, and also because of the discrepancy between the hackers self-image (self-definition), and the public image (mostly defined by the media). ... Hackers were known for their resourcefulness and their persistence in solving software-related problems. The first hackers created the hacker ethics (as described in Stephen Levys book "Hackers", 1984) which was based on the idea of freedom of information and respect for other peoples data. ... Today, hackers are fighting this negative conception by referring back to the early hacker ethics.
- So one of the most famous hackers mottoes is: "Hacking: Attitude and Competence!". ...
- This kind of inquisitiveness, however, does not have exclusively positive connotations; it is also equated with poking ones nose where it does not belong and asking awkward questions at the wrong time and place (1), especially when hackers' actions reveal the unreliability and insecurity of systems which are sold to the public as secure. In these cases, hackers are labelled by politicians and the media as dangerous criminals who steal sensitive or commercially valuable information, cause damage and endanger, in a worstcase scenario, national security. This is how hackers are usually viewed by the public, and onto them is projected all the uneasiness regarding new technologies. The fear of hackers is nothing other than the fear of uncontroll-able and, for most people, mysterious, new technologies.
- This adds a political dimension to hacking, although most of the early hackers weren't particularly concerned about the political dimensions of what they were doing. (Even now, many hackers prefer to focus on the 'sporting' aspect, placing themselves in the political spectrum as "liberal" or even "uninterested". ...
- Hackers have created a new category of illegal knowledge. ...
- So, on the one hand hackers work for the opening of knowledge systems and provide handy tools for this undertaking, and on the other hand work for the protection of the individual. ... It is now being acknowledged that hackers represent a group of experts who practise resistance from the inside, whereas in the 1980s hackers were an elite handful of peo-ple who could easily be criminalized by the mass media, given that what they were doing was, as far as the broader public was concerned, cloaked in a cloud of mystery. Hackers were labelled the wizards of the information age as they seemed to be able to control the machines which control people. On a technological level, hackers are able to look behind the scenes of the new media/ technologies and therefore certainly have a lot of power. ... Thus people today have a better understanding of the concerns of hackers than they did ten years ago. Hackers are still the heroes of the information age as they seem to be the only ones who can adequately respond to the challenges which go along with the complete restructuring of our society, but they have also started to demystify their own process.
