Bryce Case Jr. AKA YTCracker - Anonymous Hacker | SRS #85

Bryce Case Jr., aka YTCracker, is a hacker, musician, also a self-identified member of the hacker group Anonymous. Bryce has been called "The Original Digital Gangster" for his early adoption and manipulation of all things online. Ryan Montgomery, a fan favorite on SRS, calls Bryce his mentor.

In this special Holiday release, we cover Bryce's life story starting with his early exploits when the internet was just coming into itself. We discuss his aptitude for clever digital marketing and finding money-making opportunities in every corner of America Online.

Bryce made a name for himself in the hacking community by digitally defacing government websites like NASA and propping up coalitions of hackers across the web. A "Black Hat" now turned "White Hat," Bryce Case Jr. has repurposed his unscrupulous skill-set into a leading force for cybersecurity, working with some of the largest tech companies in the world.

had a lot of fun doing this - thanks to lord @0dayctf aka ryan montgomery for introducing us, and shawn and team for being such awesome people! hack the planet!

[dayCTF]

Thank both of you for all of the kind words & it's awesome how it comes full circle. Bryce has been a monumental part of my journey, and so have you Shawn. Much love!🚀

YTCracker taught me how to overclock my first gaming PC in 2011 over Twitter DMs. It's 2024 and I am now a Systems Administrator for a multistate company. He'll never understand or know the impact he made on me as an individual but he is absolutely my hero!

Shawn, who thought that a 52 yr old ex- football fanatic would be watching this instead of packers-lions . we're awake .. thanks for bringing real issues to light . Love the show

[rafaellaureano]

It's so refreshing to see two guys that are top tier in their profession be so humble.

[Whiteboyactual]

Hi Shawn, I'm a truck driver and have to work 12 hrs today. This made my crappy day away from my family so much better. Thanks man, happy Thanksgiving

[trashgarbageoffroad]

Shawn is quickly becoming one of the best interviewers in the world.

[jasonrogers]

I am in fact spending Thanksgiving alone so thank you Shawn and crew for considering that.

[joeyallen]

"Being a good dad" man that hits hard and seems to be a common theme through a lot of these interviews. I may not be a world class hacker or a special operator, but I CAN be a good dad and that seems to be what's most important to you and many of your guests.

[Sophistry]

I much prefer getting long episodes all in one bite and being able to go thru them at my own pace, rather than having to wait for a new episode every day or two.

[samrowland]

I love when Ex-SF dudes look like accountants, and it turns out I also like when Hackers look like GTA characters.

[REDDEVIL]

The variety of people you interview makes this channel the best around

[CubensisEnjoyer]

I've never listened to a 6 hour long discussion in my entire life until this one. What an incredible and interesting person. As a security analyst I've heard of YTCracker and some of the things he's done in passing but after this I have a newfound respect for him. Cyber really is filled with some brilliant people.

[JoJoJohnston]

I wasn't Alone on Thanksgiving, I have two Dobermans. Plenty of good, loyal company. Thank you Shawn and Crew. We love you!!

[ninarosko]

I’m driving, shuffling my kiddos from school to Drivers Training, to Basketball… Listening on my earbud. Then I finally stop. I open the video, and I’m dying! Laughing! Completely not expecting that this Hacker Savant would be dressed like Dog Daddy with a mix of a Colombian coke lord. AWESOME. 💯

[mannyzuccarelli]

Aside from Bryce being a brilliant lyricist, scientist, and hacker, he is a genuine human with a huge heart. Fire that these two connected! 👊🏻👊🏻

[piratebtf]

Finally a believable guest who can express himself and retell stories well. Please! More guests like this!

[Igor_tigor]

Dude popped out in the limited edition Gucci x Adidas collab track suit. Drippiest fit on SRS to date.

[waynesmith]

There are a million podcasts out there now. This podcast is so successful because of Shawn’s ability to connect to other human beings. The friendship he’s developed with these guys, that are so very different from himself, is a testament to that.

[cameronjohn]

An infant genius, car jacking, drug dealing, hip hopping, cyber Well, I'm going to be honest friends I did not see this coming lol. This guy should be the new Dos Equis spokesman (The most interesting man in the world). Absolutely fascinating human. Thanks for the great interview as always Shawn.
