Ep 109 - I invented it!: Al Gore's Cyber War Game - Eligible Receiver 97
About this episode
In War Games Part 2, we talk about the 1997 Game 'Eligible Receiver' where "Government Hackers" were able to disable civilian power grids, get into top-secret government networks, and take command of a ship. We chat about how the internet is really young, and how we are really old, and how everything that Hollywood can imagine is probably true.
