MTV & Hacking?! Mark Unseen   Apr 26 23:23 UTC 1999

I was watching MTV Road Rules today and I noticed that this guy on there had
a r00t hat on. I find that quite amusing because the guy seems like a total
flamer. In a previous episode he also talked of leaving a couple virii in his
school computers before he graduated so he'd have 'complete backdoor access
to the system'. Does anyone else think that this is stupid? Are we watching
the demise of the 'hacking' subculture as we speak?

Just a Though,
Jack

Sounds like a complete poseur.  But then what else would you get on MTV?

I seem to remember hearing about this dork when he first joined MTV -
apparently they threw some sort of "I told you I could do it" message onto
MTV's website so it would look like he'd hacked it. Fortunately for thw world
in general, no one bothered to notice.
 Besides - we all know that MuchMusic is better ;)

MTV has turned non-all-music?  I should try turning on that thing called a
television more.  Never mind, useless comment on my part.  :-)

I'm still on the wavelength of Three Dog Night, The Beatles and Bobby Darin..
And to think I wasn't alive in their time!  All I know about modern music is
that people watch it on TV and they have imaginative names for bands.

MTV has been into variety programming for years now.  The worst (or best,
depending on your tastes) have been the "reality" shows like Real World or
Road Rules, where a disparate bunch of people are thrown together in one
house, and apparently filmed most of the time.  The results, along with
narration by the participants, are editted into a "show".  Then they've had
game shows, which were sometimes good, sometimes terrible, news, even movies.

And they still call themselves *Music* TV?  It's a strange world.

I call them empty-vee. and yes, the kid on the show w/the r00t hat is a
pathetic example of someone dying for attention.

I hate it when stupid tv shows portray hackers as these fat kids with no
social life and is out to destroy the world. Lol I never seen a hacker like
that in my life.

My friend wanted me to do the same, but I told him to grow up.  I just hate
those kind of guys.  I think that they think it is cool to do so.

I have to say I missed all of the hacker-type things on MTV, I think the
reason being is that I think and will always think MTV sucks.
