University opens school for hackers

Hackers are not...: crackers.
Just learning a skillset doesn't incline one to use it innappropriately.
Think of it this way; if all drugs were legalized tomorrow, would everyone become an addict? of course not. The people who are inclined toward that form of stupidity are already dopers. Similarly, those inclined toward cracking ("hacker" is a compliment, BTW!) are not going to be more likely to do it because they took a course. As previously stated, hacking is a mindset, a way of looking at problems and potential solutions.
Hackers are the modern hot-rodders. Just tell 'em what can't be done and they're off!; Posted by: handydan918 Posted on: 06/20/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
