It seems like there was some commonality between early hacker culture like you’d see at MIT and in zines like Youth International Party Line and the scene all the way up till the 2000s but after chanology it’s all aspiring criminals, hactivists, and security professionals.

Is there still some youth subculture somewhere revolving around m80s, prank calls, huffing glue, hacking your local branch library, and cringy writing?

I know some scene people still but we’re all old and wouldn’t be part of something so dumb and risky. Does it still exist?

those people were never really all that relevant even back in the day. they were just the only people on the internet so you heard about their bullshit a lot more
