Why is this article significant? The person being interviewed in the article is Lewis de Payne, aka "Roscoe" as the author of the article named him, Kevin Mitnick's perennial #hacker comrade. This article documents the LA phone #phreak scene which was on the verge of becoming part of the early 80s California #hacking scene, a hotspot in the early days.

This one time in 1936 Popeye's nemesis Bluto engaged in a bit of phone phreaking and prank calling, and (spoiler) got beat up for it.

Susan Thunder shows Geraldo Rivera how to access computers via modem in 1982I’ve clipped interviews with hackers from the 1980’s from longer TV news or documentary segments, you can find the longer videos linked below as well. None of the clips here are longer than a few minutes.
We are talking about primary sources here, hackers in the 1980’s talking about hacking, filmed at the time.
Some of these clips are from longer broadcasts that were essentially lost to the public, that I have retrieved from closed archival sites and uploaded for anyone to view and use.
ABC 20/20 – 1982
Geraldo Rivera interviews infamous California phone phreak and hacker Susan Thunder about phreaking, hacking and the art of dumpster diving at the local telephone company offices. You can find the whole, longer video over at HackCurio and I highly recommend watching it all.
CBS News – 1983
This clip from a longer CBS evening news broadcast from September of 1983 features some brief interview segments with a 17 year old anonymous hacker who describes gaining access to bank systems with passwords shared between friends.
He describes hacking as a communal “project”, with kids physically getting together around a computer to test their wits. You can find the longer broadcast on my channel here.
If you want to learn about why 1983 was a pivotal year for public awareness of the hacker underground you can read that blog.
NBC News – 1983
The first hacker group arrests to make the news nationwide in the U.S. were the raids of members of the 414s. This clip from NBC news also in September of 1983 features a brief interview with the 414s member who would become almost an unofficial spokesman for the group, Neil Patrick.
You can find the longer broadcast on my channel here. You can also find a short but very informative documentary on the 414s here.
Sveriges Television AB – 1984
Below we have two video clips from a Swedish TV documentary about hackers and phone phreaks from back in 1984.
The interview clips themselves are in English and feature Cheshire Catalyst, a phone phreak and activist who edited TAP Magazine, the original underground publication for phone phreaks in the 1970’s.
Cheshire Catalyst talks about hacking and some of the exploits he has been privy to over the years. You can find the whole documentary, in a mixture of Swedish and English, over on Internet Archive here.
CBS News – 1985
“If I break into your computer system how are you going to find me out?”
3 different young hackers talk about their exploits and their lack of fear in regards to consequences in this short clip from CBS News in August of 1985. The full news segment is available to watch here.
BBC – 1989
A brief portion of an interview Edward Austin Singh gave to the BBC for an episode of a TV show called Antenna, which focused on computer viruses and hacking.
Singh had been arrested the year before for trespassing in an English university computer lab and had then been linked to hacking incidents at U.S. government and military installations. He ultimately escaped prosecution because of a lack of laws relating to hacking in the UK at the time of his arrest.
Conclusion
