Comment: Refs 2, 3 and 5 all seem to cite the same source, and 4 looks somewhat dubious, while 1 makes only a passing mention of the subject of this draft. For notability per WP:GNG / WP:ORG, we need to see significant coverage directly of the subject, in multiple secondary sources that are reliable and independent (of the subject and of each other).

Piratas Unidos Argentinos (United Argentine Pirates in English), also known by its initials PUA[1] was a hacker group based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, founded in 1986 and considered to have been the first hacker group in Latin America. The group was founded by the hackers then known as Doctor Trucho, Chacal and Nibbler, as documented in the book "Llaneros Solitarios. Hackers, la guerrilla informática" written by Fernando Bonsembiante and Raquel Roberti, edited by Jorge Lanata and published by Espasa-Calpe in 1995.[2][3]
Unlike more recent hacker groups, PUA's activities were not primarily criminal, but fundamentally of discovery, when most of the world's computer networks were not publicly or freely accessible. As Chacal (Jackal) stated in an interview given at the time: "The well-understood hacker is a kind of Robin Hood of information, who allows everyone to access information that otherwise remains hidden."[4]
The organization ceased to operate as such in 1991.[5]
