Abstract

The objective is to identify the hacker as a product of the computerized society, to understand how the activities carried out are typical of the human being and are present from an early age when playing. For this, the history and guidelines that make up its movement are reviewed, how these rules and characteristics are similar to those defined in the game spaces, how it transforms current technologies emerging as a playful act related to freedom that is directly opposed to the  monopolistic practices, leading them to transform into a social movement that proposes new spaces and rules of the game for the use of technologies.
