Such a stupid stereotype. Hackers like this who are able to mess around with big companies are genius (or evil genius I guess), they are masterminds in their work. Most of these guys probably have normal jobs and do this a hobby. where they gain probably more money than all the people in this thread combine. To be clear I'm not talking about morale or ethics, from a software engineering perspective these guys who are able to get inside big companies are masterminds and by far not an easy job at all.

Yep, just like a serial killer is a genius for avoiding capture and doing their 'hobby' really well. I mean I'm not talking about the morailty of brutally murdering someone but from a normal person perspective. ..See how stupid that sounds?

If they are truely normal people with hobbies they'd be going for a weekend cycle or playing a sport, spending time with their friends but they don't have any of that because they are stuck in their parents basements.

Read my previous comment. As a noob white hack, on a technical level, this stuff really interest me, and not all hackers (contrary to popular believe) are scumbags like these guys or live in their mother's basement.
