I hope my focus is clear to most readers however.

There is a difference between having computer skills and attacking peoples computers for no reason. People do not fear or doubt or harbor uncertainty about those kind of people. They have anger toward them. There is no purpose to ruining someone else's property.

And you don't have to be all that computer literate to accomplish that either. That is the saddest part.

If you have computer savvy and you can do something good with it then you have nothing to be offended by.

Hopefully there is only a narrow group of people who are so desperate for attention that they would blindside someone by ruining their property. Some it is a narrow minded point. Obviously I am not addressing people with actual computer talent.]]> Wed, 16 Jan 2008 00:44:14 PST http://www.computersight.com/Computers/What-Kind-of-Person-Hacks-a-Computer.73053#comment85569
Nick I hear my my man. I don't agree with the spyware types either. I think that kind of corporate invasion is very lame also. And it is vandalism if it ruins the operation of your system. Maybe I wasn't clear on my focus. I was referring to the bullying type hackers. Hacking of the juvenile kind. Something that doesn't require any real skill but only malice. ]]> Mon, 14 Jan 2008 05:02:02 PST http://www.computersight.com/Computers/What-Kind-of-Person-Hacks-a-Computer.73053#comment84451
Also, you don\'t seem to have a complete view of what a \"hacker\" is. You are only talking about hackers that invade your computer and do ther malicious things, but the term \"hacker\" or \"hack\" can apply to many things such as taking apart and modifying digital devices and computer code. If you type in hack on Google, most of what you\'ll find are howtos on modifying iPods and laptops.]]> Sat, 12 Jan 2008 19:27:06 PST http://www.computersight.com/Computers/What-Kind-of-Person-Hacks-a-Computer.73053#comment84374 ]]> Sat, 12 Jan 2008 17:16:43 PST
