Hackers… who are they? Is hacking a gift? Can anyone hack? In our COMPSCI class, we watched this documentary about hackers/hacking… well I learned some facts:
-Hacking can be used for a good thing (“captain zap” which lowered the price of telephone bills, Companies hire a team of hackers to test their firewall protection)
-Hackers can also be used for bad things (like increase your credit card bill! eeeeeee!)
-Believe it or not, there’s a school for hackers! (and it has the same logo as DLSU, nice…+_+)
Those we’re just some facts that I remembered…
So I was browsing through some videos on you tube, and then I found one video about hacking cellphones… would you believe it? The least private tool that we have can be hacked!!! So here’s the story, Paris Hilton’s cellphone got hacked and all of her contacts and messages got hacked… That threatened people, cuz who would have think your own cellphone be hacked?!
After that incident some people sonducted and experiment and tried to hack files from normal people’s cellphones, well they were successful and hacked all the messages in the inbox, outbox and sent messages also all the contacts… That crime happened and the person being hacked doesn’t know that he/she was being hacked…
Another experiment was conducted (during the OSCARS) and tried to put a hacking device in a bag. Then they would try to hack the cellphones of the celbreties that woul pass by with their limos… It was a success, they hacked 50 celebrity phones… The venue was full of security but they forgot about security on hacking…
Well to sum it all up, for me hacking is a gift, and it just depends on the person on how to use it…
