René Carmille & The Birth of Ethical Hacking

René Carmille is considered one of the first hackers. Today, we'd call him a hacktivist, or someone who sabotages a computer for ethical reasons. Carmille sabotaged the Nazi census of France during World War II. He saved many thousands of Jewish people by hacking Hollerith machines during the war.
