- chopsueyar 16y agoDo you consider that hacking?
- chopsueyar 16y agoTo clarify, I meant, in the context of the movie, where Zuckerberg is accused of hacking by the administration because he used wget. Downvote away!
- trustfundbaby 16y agoThat was when I got sold on the movie. You could see him fire up putty on his windows xp box and catch snippets of code as he ran perl & shell scripts to do exactly what he wanted.
