I'm pretty sure "blatantly lying about your past experience and getting your wife to cover for you" isn't "hacking the interviewing process".

Why though? I can just imagine someone at the time saying something similar of Steve Wozniak and the other 'phreakers' who were stealing phone calls. If it had worked, and was retold as an old-timer story by a rich and successful man, it would be high-fives all round.
Stealing phone calls is fighting back against large faceless corporations. Lying your way into a job at a startup is very much not.
