Audio: Inside the “Hacker” Culture of the Rich and Powerful

When you picture a hacker, what’s the first thing that comes to mind?
For most, the word elicits images of a person in a dark hoodie in a darker room hunched over a computer furiously typing lines of code. However, when it comes to our wider culture of hacking, it’s often the most wealthy and powerful people who “hack” societal rules.
That interpretation of hacking is the focus of the new book, “A Hacker’s Mind: How the Rich and Powerful Bend Society’s Rules, and How to Bend Them Back” by technologist and “security guru” Bruce Schneier. He spoke with Marketplace’s David Brancaccio about how things like tax loopholes exemplify how some powerful people subvert the rules…
Audio: “Hacker’s Mind” Meets Lawyer’s Mind
Interviewing Bruce Schneier in episode 444 of the Cyberlaw Podcast

This bonus episode offers an interview of Bruce Schneier, the prolific security guru, about his latest book, A Hacker’s Mind: How the Powerful Bend Society’s Rules, and How to Bend Them Back. As usual with Bruce’s books, it is a good read, technically up to date and approachable. Much of the book, and of the interview, explores Bruce’s view that hacking—subverting the intent of a system of rules without actually breaking the rules—has much in common with lawyering. Finding ways to subvert a Microsoft program, Bruce argues, is not much different from exploiting loopholes in airline mileage programs or finding ways to count cards at a casino without letting the casino know what you’re doing. And those exploits are not really so different from what lawyers do when they hunt for unexpected tax loopholes to shelter income. The analogy only goes so far, as Bruce admits. It is often hard to actually define the “intent” that is being subverted, or to draw a line between subversion within the rules and just plain rule-breaking. And hacking, for all its underdog-beats-The-Man romance, is just a tool, available to everyone, including The Man. The world’s best computer hackers mostly work for governments or corporations these days, and the same is true for the world’s best legal hackers…
