This episode of The Stuart Semple Show takes us back to the 90s, when cyber warfare was wreaking havoc on an international scale, redefining the landscape of social activism, and breaking down barriers… all from sleepy suburban homes. Guest Lauri Love is no stranger to cyberactivism. He talks about his initiation into the world of cybercrime at the tender age of 14, his international travel restrictions, and his views on mainstream journalism.  What is art?
