Genocide2600 was a hacker group or collective which was active from the 1980s into early 2000. The group's name was explained as a statement designed to show people that they had become desensitized to being shocked by the horrors seen throughout the world such as murder and other atrocities. It was the hope of the founder "Genocide" that the very name or word Genocide would cause people to flinch or experience some sort of revulsion and therefore, wake up a little.
