Thanks to
kestrell's recommendation, I rewatched the movie SNEAKERS recently. A lovely film, with sound design as virtuoso as its cinematography, lots of fun geek jokes, and a thrilling plot constructed as elegantly as a 19th century watch.
One of the ethical wacky hacker ensemble is Whistler, a blind technowhiz, played by David Straitharn.
Here's the Boston Globe obituary for Joybubble, a real-life phone phreaker with the mad skills the movie's Whistler demonstrates.
