Please be aware that a hacker is the good guy depicted as the bad guy by the media. The term you are looking for is, "cracker." This is also the reason the media doesn't use the proper term. A cracker is someone who - for example - cracks passwords, makes exploits, or gains malicious access to computers. A hacker on the other hand is someone who - for example - tweaks things hacking away at it until the issue is resolved. Or for another example, the guy who hacked the I-Phone so he could use it with T-Mobile instead of AT&T.
So if he's growing up to become a hacker, I'm all for it! If he's growing up to become yet another cracker, I am most definitely against it. :) |

| Yeah today's media classifies a "hacker" as a dangerous person. |

Yes, yes... There are far too many of them, let us show a united front against the proliferation of them!
