If you thought we already reached Peak Hacker, think again: the hacktivist collective Anonymous is set to hit the stage at Boston University Dance Theater in a ballet production called HackPolitik. Like, actually.
HackPolitik’s primary character is a botnet operator named Civil who was a key player in the 2010 DDoS attacks against Mastercard and Paypal that were dubbed #OpPayback. The performance, which is a collaboration between music ensemble Juventas and People Movers Dance, is “a surrealist exploration, through music and dance, of how the internet has affected discourse in the 21st century, blurring the lines between activism and anarchy.”
Wonder if all the ticket holders will be doxxed as part of the performance.
