"Hacker" Kevin Mitnick's Dramatic Turnaround

This Israel National News radio interview with Kevin Mitnick, conducted for the Goldstein on Gelt show, covers his secular Jewish upbringing and bar mitzvah as described in Ghost in the Wires, along with his personal cybersecurity advice.

Mitnick recounts one of his favorite teenage pranks — hijacking a McDonald’s drive-through speaker using a ham radio — and describes spending a year in solitary confinement after prosecutors argued he could pose a security risk even from a prison payphone.
