#Blog is live now, I welcome feedback, would love to know if this is of genuine interest to people. Fascinated me to get an insight into #FBI institutional knowledge of #hackers in 1987 and that they were looking to build proper profiles on teen computer delinquents.

@realhackhistory@chaos.social I guess I could add some color to the heavy handedness. raids were notorious for smashing entry, guns drawn, hands up, don't touch the keyboard or we shoot. I remember one guy posting "they're here" and we never heard from him again.
today they toss flash bangs and smoke to prevent keyboard press. back then it was force.
