1987 max headroom (hack) - I'm not sure if it was a hack or he got inside access to the set to be able to use professional equipment to not only create it, but spread it to as well without anyone knowing. It looks like he had inside access to some type of professional equipment as well as a way to get inside access to directly do it. Maybe through some part of the building to hook it in quietly. video - max headroom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjCGh0UfYB4 https://historycollection.co/the-disturbing-unsolved-mystery-of-the-max-headroom-tv-hack/ Is the max headroom (hack) one of the original tech (harmful) trolls or one of the original "it's just a prank bro!"? ----- side note: (what I kind of think happened myself or something in this realm at least) Maybe a vampire tap connected to a computer and the person had close access if not inside access to the building itself. Was able to somehow connect in VIA a vampire tap (something like this) and was able to show the video this way alone or something like that? Basically hijack what was being shown and replace it with their own thing with something like a vampire tap. Not sure on the dates. https://www.techopedia.com/definition/750/vampire-tap ----- https://www.ieee.org/ IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers https://standards.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-standards/standards/web/documents/other/d2-02_carlson_standardized_automotive_ethernet_cables_and_connectors.pdf from link (below)... "1973 -1990The 8th Ethernet & IP @ Automotive Technology Day5October 2018•RG8 coax and the “vampire tap” was part of the Alto research project at Xerox PARC and was standardized for commercial use in 802.3-1983 10BASE5" ----- No idea myself on this completely, but the max headroom hacking (manipulating - this is my own word) situation happened in 1987. So I wonder if max headroom was either close or inside and had the ability to do something like a vampire tap to somehow gain access then hijack the what was shown (replacing it with something of their own). ----- Whoever (not entirely sure) was able to manipulate (hack - I prefer manipulate myself) the technology to be able to work in their favor as a technology manipulator if not a 4th dimensional technology manipulator. They gained unauthorized access to the tv station or where the tv show was being broadcasted then had the ability to hijack and replace what was being shown with his own stuff. 4th dimensional technology manipulator... basically would be someone that manipulates technology whether in a physical realm and/or in a cyber space realm to work in their favor especially as time plays out. 4th dimensional (time + space) or as time plays out in any type of space such as a physical space and/or a cyber space. Not to be confused with human time (minutes, hours) or basically the measurement of "time". 4th dimensional physical space (3rd dimension) - cyber space - (3rd dimension - not sure) time (4th dimension) - with the 3rd dimension involved in this.
