interesting historically if you're into computers. How charmingly naive they all were about computer security in 1990 when "internet" and "civility" could be used in the same sentence without a negative modifier and "the internet worm/virus" was a singular incident. The technical content is long out-dated, but the stories of the difficulty of identifying the perpetrators of computer attacks and the moral questions are still relevant.

En række forfattere forsøgte i 1997 på at komme med et bud på fremtiden for computere. Det er ikke ret godt ramt. Cloud computing, blockchain currencies, smart phones. Nej! I det mindste er fiaskoen med femte generations blah-blah så slem, at folk tager masser af forbehold for deres egne profetier.
