Not that I'm saying people should try to learn to hack but.... the part
about hackers not giving up there secrets isn't necessarily true. There's an
electronic book available for free D\L called "The Great Hacker Crackdown"
which is a true account of what happened when AT&T's long distance went down
& they thought hackers had done it. But the part that was interesting is how
hackers hacked into the local phone system to get free long distance. No one
would have ever caught them except for the fact that they just couldn't keep
it to themselves. After word spread about how it was done, someone thought
it would be really funny to reprogram the phone computer so that when people
tried to call the local police they got a phone sex place instead. That's
when the it all hit the fan. The author said that most hackers just have to
brag to someone or it isn't worth the trouble to hack into a system. D/L the
book, it's a cool story.
