There is alot of people out there who say that hacking is illigal. But is it? The Term Hacking has two defenitions:
1. An enthusiastic and skillful computer programmer or user.
2. A person who uses computers to gain unauthorized access to data.
The Second one is the one that most people refer to. The Term CyberCrime is crime committed using a computer and the internet to steal money or ID. So technically it could be either.
I love taking things apart, modding them and upgrading them. This is also "Hacking". I am not commiting a crime or breaking the law. If I was to takedown or deface a website then that would be illigal hacking. That would be number two. However if I hacked into, Natwest for example and stole some cash then that would be CyberCrime. Over all CyberCrime is worse but what if someone "Hacks" into your personel account or E-mail then would that be worse. There are many cases where the hacker gains access to your e-mail accounts and holds it to randsome. The poor people who get hacked often get there E-mail back, Just like in this story. I shold hope non of my readers commit CyberCrime or hack computers(iligally). Hopefully you now have a good idear of what hacking and Cybercrime is. Please Comment on your thoughts.
