Hackers 25

Audiences and critics may not have fully understood Hackers when it was released exactly 25 years ago - but the cyber-cult classic continues to be a touchpoint in the public's early understanding of the nascent Internet.

The film followed a group of young, elite, underground programmers who accidentally stumble upon a computer virus-assisted plot to

massive attack1

The debut LP from trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack is about to get a bit more massive in the U.K. this year, with a remixed, remastered deluxe edition due in November.
