ARPANet (Advanced Research Project Agency Network) the Internet predecessor, started in 1969. The first four nodes (networks) consisted of the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), University of Utah and the Stanford Research Institute (SRI). Arpanet was finally decommissioned in 1990 having been largely replaced by NSFNET. The pictures are in chronological order.

'Dark Dante' -Hacker & phreaker, now writes for Security Focus. Poulsen, a native of Pasadena, California is a former programmer, network administrator and hacker. Kevin had burrowed deep into the giant switching networks of Pacific Bell, exploring and exploiting nearly every element of its computers. His forays led to a now infamous incident with KIIS-FM in Los Angeles. In 1990 the station ran the "Win a Porsche by Friday" contest, with a $50,000 Porsche given to the 102nd caller. Kevin and his associates, stationed at their computers, seized control of the station's 25 telephone lines, blocking out all calls but their own. Then he dialed the 102nd call -- and later collected his Porsche 944. The hacker also uncovered FBI and national security wiretaps throughout California, including taps on the Israeli consulate in Los Angeles. Some of Poulsen's actions turned into the first ever espionage case against a hacker, the charges were later dropped. Kevin pled guilty to breaking into computers to get the names of undercover businesses operated by the FBI. In 1995 Poulsen was sentenced to 51 months imprisonment.
