¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI think you glorify it too much. A hacker's goal is
most often to get around a security or licensing issue. You can romanticize a
thief all you want but they will still serve real time for their crimes. And
they don't look so cool?behind bars. Our own government is considering
equating web-defacing and Denial of service attacks to acts of terrorism.

Just because one did no harm after compromising a
system doesn't mean that it is not wrong or 'bad' to do so, I think the argument
that such people give opportunities to create better security is very weak, and
if it were to float at all then it would be true in all cases. Just because you
don't have a steel door and an enhanced security system for your house doesn't
mean that it's alright for anyone to come into your front door and have a party
in your house. To use the security argument, they were just showing you that you
should have better locks on your doors.
