 Today I recieved my copy of Hackers are people too. The DVD was preimiered at DEFCON 16 2008, but as I was unable to make it, and heard good things I had to order the DVD. Its good, I think it was well shot and well produced, and gives a little insight into what people term as a Hacker really is all about, from the guys and girls themselves. If your a techie InfoSec type of person, I think you will enjoy this, and at only £9.35 including shipping it wont break the bank. Why not even get a copy for the sceptic you know, who things hackers / InfoSec professionals are all bad, and make them realise Hackers are people too :). I look forward to more from Ashley Schwartau and Co.
