  Wark, A Hacker Manifesto
Hackers come piecemeal to struggle against the particular forms in which abstraction is commodified and made into the private property of the vectoralist class.
Hackers come as a class to recognise their class interest is best expressed through the struggle to free the production of abstraction not just from the particular fetters of this or that form of property, but to abstract the form of property itself.
Hackers must calculate their interests not as owners, but as producers, for this is what distinguishes them from the vectoralist class.

 CNN - Convention exposes hackers' dark underbelly - August 11, 1998
LAS VEGAS (IDG) -- The Def Con hacker convention held recently at Jack Gaughan's Plaza Hotel in downtown Las Vegas drew a crazy mix of the evil, the curious, the leather-clad, the frat boys, the blue-haired cyberpunks and the feds in surveillance, who failed miserably to blend in.
One Def Con attendee - no names, please - who came all the way from Amsterdam for the event, said GSM phones are prevalent in Europe and it would be hard to resist using the information he had picked up at Def Con.
And there's apparently a thin line between the hacker and the security professional: Companies such as Secure Computing, which helped organize the event, were known to have their eyes out for talent that can be squeezed into a corporate suit rather than a jail cell.
