One of the great advantages of having supreme mastery of any field is - you gain the ability to not partake in that field of your own volition. Others still in the apprenticeship stages don't have that luxury, because they need to learn - they need to absorb as much information as possible, and they can't afford to simply opt out of learning more. In terms of a specific symbol that identifies hacker/privacycare types there is things like the glider symbol. Also, loose and informal groups like Telecomix, and Anonymous are usually a sign someone has opted out of the matrix and knows the game is rigged. Cory Doctory makes the analogy that general purpose computers are going to get inadvertently infected/compromised no matter how hard you try. Once a computer is connected to the public Internet - it is a sitting duck, and exposed. We can lock it down, but it is still speaking to the packet switched net, which, by design - is going to be toxic. I don't know how to protect my devices. A lot of the problems are too systemic, and need massive changes in policy and law to get systems trusted again.
