In remembrance of Felipe Rodriquez
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/12/10
Felipe makes a few appearances in this great _Unauthorized Access_ documentary by Annaliza Savage 1994.
Memorable moments:
- Intro about the initial small size of Hack-Tick.
- The start of the Hack-Tick ISP in The Netherlands, which originally started with UUCP and later grew into one of the most important general ISPs with a very keen focus in privacy: xs4all.
- Hacking at the End of the Universe congress.
Most of the “in memories” were in Dutch, but one of the few English ones says it all: [Wayback] D U T C H F E L L O W S — In memory of Felipe Rodriquez.
Karin Spaink (friend of Felipe, also suffering from MS) wrote [Wayback] Felipe Rodriguez has died.
