The outstanding PBSoffbook channel on YouTube has done another great interview/documentary with a technology topic - this time discussing the history and evolution of hacking.

The video explores the early days in the '60s, when hacking was accepted and thought of as a good thing; through the '80s and '90s when the media used the word to describe criminal break-ins of computers and networks; to the world of today, where people use hacking for activist purposes (Anonymous) or create hack-a-thons to help solve problems.
