“I had a book in 2006 called Gray Hat Hacking, and I guess I realized that if you acquired these sort of powers, you could control the world.”
Mentioned on the Lex Fridman Podcast #31 (2019) while describing how he got into hacking as a teenager. The first edition (the one in print by 2006, matching this ISBN) was written by Harper, Harris, Ness, Eagle, and Lester.
