L’hacking non nasce con i computer. Già agli inizi del Novecento dei giovani appassionati modificavano i propri apparecchi radio per ottenere prestazioni non previste dal loro produttore. Alcuni decenni dopo, negli anni ’60, si diffondono i "phone phreaks", degli "hacker dei telefoni" che prefigurano molte caratteristiche della odierna cultura digitale. Con la diffusione dei PC i gruppi hacker diventano un fenomeno mediatico e di massa. Alla metà degli anni ’80, quello che fino ad allora era stato considerato come un "ragazzo prodigio" si trasforma in una potenziale minaccia come autore di clamorose truffe o altre pratiche criminali.
