A friend keeps recommending the channel Fern, so I watched its piece on Kevin Mitnick — in the 1990s, the most wanted hacker in the world — and it opens on something I didn’t expect a hacking story to open on: card tricks. Young Kevin loved magic, the video says, because magic is control. A magician pulls your attention where he wants it and exploits what you assume is true.
