Why do Hackers hack?
1. For things. Yes, breaking into a computer is great for getting information. if I wanted a DVD that someone has, I would just need to break in and steal the DVD loaded software without having to do it myself. Free DVD anyone?
2.For status. Just like bank robbery, it looks cool to be in a gang, have an identity and get recognition for a skill. That's if you're desperate for social approval.
3.For fun. Hacking is a game to prove how smart you are. The more defences, anti-viral, anti-spyware and firewalls you can destroy the smarter you are. Also, it's gladiator games phenomenon. Yeah you can get a thrill form destroying someone's computer. It's not your own.
4.For vengeance. Stupid laws against piracy? Fed up about having to buy subscriptions to iTunes and Napster? Well, hack in and modify the subscription program and them you can watch them get angry at losing money. Also, you can lynch programs for free off them while they scramble like rats trying to fix PayPal! No, I wouldn't recommend it; it's not fair.
5.For nothing. Sometimes, you hack without meaning too. Or you join a gang to see what it's like. Before you know it, you're hooked. Don't do it.
6.For guilt. Hackers sometimes break in to fix systems which users forget to repair. They also alert users to security holes in their system. they also can repair systems from a far which other hackers have destroyed. bear in mind, that these people are a great when they show up but like batman they can be scary. unfortunately, hacking for good causes is rare. Can someone call Techno Hood for my computer again?
Hackers hack for a reason. it's mostly psychological.
Gather information, you can make money doing this.
I can only answer one and that is to steal identification or to find out infomation about you
The people can breakthrough the laws for these reasons. 1) They want to do whatever the want to. 2) They get mad at the people who break the laws.
can you break up a will before reaching the date of birth stated on it?
If you break a law then you'll go to jail.But it depends on what law you break.Does that answer your question?
Example sentence - It had been so cold for weeks on end and we were grateful for the break of warmer weather.
Yes it is.
The crackers are malicious programmers who break into secure systems. The hackers are more interested in gaining knowledge about computer systems and possibly using this knowledge for playful pranks. Similarity is that both break laws but intention of hackers are not bad while intention of crackers are not good.
they break into computers for information
The crackers are malicious programmers who break into secure systems. The hackers are more interested in gaining knowledge about computer systems and possibly using this knowledge for playful pranks. Since crackers break laws as a threat to the system so hacker are good because their intention are not bad.
Cracker. Hackers are people who enjoy using computers, generally to make them do things they were not intended to do - like running Linux on a playstation. Crackers are a subset of hackers that use their skills to get into computer systems, generally without consent.
They are called code breakers or more like coding thieves
Hackers gain unauthorised access to electronic information systems and may view data, but will not tamper with it. Crackers on the other hand, break into systems with the intention or stealing or damaging the data in some way.

It's a very good possibility, ethical hackers are usually employed by a company to attempt to hack into security to check defenses. Definitely.
* note these 2 aren't the official definitions, just what they are. * 1. The media says that hackers are cyber-criminals who break into your computer, plant viruses, and steal government secrets. * 2. Really(and this most people do not know) hackers are just incredibly computer talented people who may break into computers, but just for the challenge of it. A true hacker doesn't steal secrets or plant viruses, hackers are good people who wouldn't dream of doing this kind of stuff. * The action of hacking is breaking into a computer. Nothing else.This part is just an extra sort of thing but people that break into computers to plant viruses and steal very important info are actually called crackers. And there are hackers who break into computers, discover all the vulnerabilities, and then tell the person who owns the computer or network these vulnerabilities and helps them fix these weakness before crackers can get in and cause damage. These hackers are Ethical Hackers. And some people think that a firewall can keep a cracker out. WRONG!!! Firewalls can block some forms of hacking but not all.And this might help you trust what I have said, but I am actually learning how to be an Ethical Hacker, so I know.
Hackers sometimes can be referred to what are known as Trolls who simply wish to break the defenses of your computer and cause havoc just for the simple amusement of it. Other hackers have more practical motives such as planting worms and spyware in your computer to steal your personal information such as bank account and credit card information and to steal password logins and usernames for various functions.
