I had a friend request and noticed on his interests that he wanted to be a hacker. I know movies show that to be something fun or cool to be able to break into someplace just to see if you can, but absolutely wouldn't want anyone to hack into my bank account or steal my identity! What do you guys think about this?

I did remember seeing a film about a teenager who hacked into Nato defences, was it War Games? That was good for it's time. I am not very technologically minded to be honest and I am not adventurous when it comes to computer gadgetry or how it works or the ins and outs of programming so even if I wanted to be a hacker I certainly haven't got the acumen for it!

I am a programmer and i don't want to be a hacker.I don't do things that break the law.I think is better to keep a distance with that hacker.

I've noticed several posts regarding being a hacker. I have no idea why anyone would want to do something that is illegal. I see no glory in it. I can understand people wanting to know how the system works out of curiosity, but other than that, there is no reason to know how to be a hacker other than stealing identities and wrecking websites. I see nothing attractive about it.

I never wanted to be a hacker. But this topic has interested me very much.. Its a great thing to read about them or watch them in movies but experiencing them will be very painful..

I don't want to be a hacker, I don't like to take what's not mine and make it so.

i have been, but i quit after some months.it pays nothing to be a hacker. you just have unauthorised access to files and accounts.
