The Computer History Museum has one sci-fi book, the Shockwave Rider(1975), about a dystopian future in which most people are (correctly) worried that powerful others can access their personal data and use it against them. It also introduced computer “worms” with “replicating tails” that were unkillable. When I read this in 1975, Iaughed a bit… until a few weeks later I saw one, Ken Thompson’s famed hack (Turing lecture).
