Ik was vorig week bij een vriend van me, en keek naar een
documentaire ( new york city hackers).
Ik ben zelf geen hacker , maar vond wel dat Eugene E.
Kashpureff een paar intersante punten bracht zoals vrijheid
van meningsuiting en privacy.
Hier een paar stukken uit dat interview.

I believe in freedom. I believe in freedom of communication.
It is widely held that mankind got basic rights. For the
most part, those basic rights that are represented in the
Bill of Rights and the US Constitution and copied by
institutions around the world. Of those rights, two of those
who I feel is most important, are the freedom of speech and
the freedom to privacy. Both of these rights are the
freedoms of communication and I believe strongly in those
rights.

Counter-culture?

I don’t necessarily think it’s a counter-culture, it’s a
part of culture. I believe in social responsible hacking.
Technology in the deployment of technology is a great force,
that is affecting the daily lives of everybody in our
society today. More and more everyday as technology speeds
forward. The employment of this technology in our daily
lives brings up real issues. Issues that pertain to those
basic human rights we hold, those basic human rights of
communication. Now on the other hand, the development of the
laws, the acceptable social norms, which control that
technology, is driven largely by commercial interest. The
hackers are largely the peoples voice that can be raised up
to have an effect on the development of those rules, those
laws which govern the deployment of the technology for the
people, not for the commercial interest.
