Hacker

Someone who specializes in finding exploits in computer systems. There main goal is to gain unauthorized access to networks and systems, usually in order to gain further information about the network. They are technical experts and usually highly advanced programmers.

There are 2 types of hackers: black hats and white hats. Black hats are the 'bad guys' while white hats are the 'good guys'. Black hats hack for there own needs, such as stealing money from someones credit card over the internet. White hats get paid to find exploits in programs and websites and then tell the company about them so they can fix them.

A hacker broke into a federal bank and stole $50,000.

hacker

An anarchist of sorts. These people believe information should be totally undisclosed and free. Authorities do not like this idea. These peoples favorite insults include "lamer" and "noob}" They will program their own apps or hack other apps to learn how they work. They have strong curiousities imaginations and a VERY srong will to learn. Each one has their own handle or nickname (i.e. Slice or Shank) They have a fear of having their front doors broken so they only trust the info they gather with the people they would trust with their lives.

Will you teach me to be elite Mr. Hacker?
