HACK?

The term hack exists since 1960's that first starting at the model train club to mainframe computer rooms. After years, hack started being apply to less reputable inquiry. What is hacker? Based on dictionary, hacker is a person who uses computers to gain unauthorized access to data or an enthusiastic and skillful computer programmer or user, cyber-criminal. From my perspective view and majority people, hacker is a person who modify the computer system illegally and edit the original creator's information privately or crack people's information by using some computer techniques. They knows everything about computers and they can do anything with a computer. Hacking considered as a typical case that happens among the computer system technology these days. After doing some research and user test, I found that most of the hacking case barely happens in computer security whereby people used to break the firewall and steal information and accounts. Besides that, it also exist in phone, brain and many other forms. Being a hacker is not a job or duty, it is a hobby whereby they do it just for fun without getting money.
