Captain Crunch Talks Software Piracy

I was browsing around on YouTube today and found the following video. It’s a clip of an episode of the Computer Chronicles series. This particular episode aired in 1985 and features the great Captain Crunch (aka John Draper) talking about software piracy.

I found it funny how the same problem is still affecting the software industry these days. It might be a bit worse now because of P2P software such as BitTorrent and LimeWire but it’s really the same thing. They go on to show how you can get information about cracking software from some BBS systems.

Enjoy the nostalgia!
