That sounds like an interesting book. I really like cybercultural history like that. There's a book with an adjacent topic you might like, actually. It's called The Cuckoo's Egg by Clifford Stoll. He managed to start this massive investigation into a fairly prolific hacker who had infiltrated Berkeley computer systems in the late eighties and whose only "trail" he left behind was a few cents worth of network usage time. It's a true story. Anyway, just a heads up.
