The Aboveground Episode: What the Aboveground Means, The Cloak and Cosplay, The Risks Without Risks, Hacker Conferences, The Tech Industry, The Hidden Cost of Underground.

Some thoughts on a concept I've been mulling about, regarding "The Aboveground", a cosplay version of being underground used by certain groups, usually for some gain, to bring the delusion of lawlessness and lack of limits, when in fact needing and depending on those limits to succeed.

I also made a blog post: The Great Aboveground Empire.
