Skull And Bones (And Warez) - Secret Societies of the Computer Underground (and why you should create one too)

Long ago, during the “Great Age of l33t”, the digital oceans were traversed by notorious bands of pseudonymous ne’er-do-wells. These outlaw fleets, festooned with brightly-colored flags, laden with teenage pomposity and self-importance, roving their way into undiscovered territories . They took whatever they needed, but created many lasting works too. We will take you on a journey back in time, to experience what life was like during this pioneer era, with tall tales of life on the fringe, epic yarns of solidarity amongst outcasts, and discuss how forming your own “Digital Outlaw Biker Club” may be a better idea than it ever was.
