Perhaps not hacker-worthy, but this brings to mind an incident from my youth that amuses me. In 1965 I was an eighth-grader in Mrs. Ray's English class, where we were studying The Taming of the Shrew. The school had distributed paperback copies of the text to each of us, and many of us were intrigued that our copies had been censored - a big black magic marker had obscured a single line in the play. It was Mrs. Ray's custom to assign us parts and we'd read them aloud in class. So it came to pass that Jerry Gaines had the part of Petruchio when we came to the forbidden passage. Somehow, his copy of the text was uncensored, and he read aloud "What - with my tongue in your tail?" And the entire class erupted in astonishment and delight. Jerry looked around sheepishly, and Mrs. Ray smiled and shook her head. To this day I don't know if Jerry bought his own copy of the book, or if Mrs. Ray planted an uncensored copy and called on Jerry specifically to be Petruchio on that day. For sure, every other book in that classroom had been dutifully censored except for his. Maybe it was an accident... but I'd rather think that it was a beautifully executed example of plausible deniability. Score one for the Good Guys.
