The Bayrische Hackerpost was an information sheet published in Munich from 1984 to 1988.

It was subtitled “The information sheet for the life-affirming EDI user”, offered technical and legal-political information on remote data transmission (EDI) and was published by members of the Bavarian hacker scene.

There were thirteen editions numbered octal . The last edition is therefore numbered 15, and a special edition each for the IFA and Systems trade fairs .

A highlight was the first German-language article about virus programs in issue 3, the statements of which were subsequently confirmed by the first virus for the Commodore 64 . This "BHP Virus" was originally written by members of the Bavarian Hacker Post in 1986 only as evidence that the virus programs described in the article can also be distributed without networks, but solely by exchanging diskettes . The authors of the Hackerpost were regular guests on the radio broadcast Bit, byte, bitten on BR- Zündfunk, which reports on digital subculture .

The satirical description of the fictitious programming language Vatical , interspersed with allusions to the Roman Catholic Church , also comes from the Bavarian Hacker Post .
