About this video
In 2010, a mysterious hacker broke into MIT and accessed a restricted server room. He connected his computer to the network and ran a program called Keepgrabbing.py.
He used the program to grab as many academic journals as possible from the digital library called JSTOR. Since the hacker was using the MIT networks, he was able to access all of JSTOR for free, without having to pay the hefty fees that they charged.
