I can just see Sleep cringing about the thread title :D

Whilst I like many people often hold hackers to be a group of attention seeking anarchists always up to no good. Here's a different story of giving people access to the Internet where it would usually be restricted. ;)

Hackers are slightly more insidious and dangerous than that. That article is interesting if hackers put together more things that help people instead of just messing up normal peoples lives then i would have more time for them.

I'm in no way saying that I'm sympathetic for hackers, have suffered from enough trojan horses etc. ;)

But yes, if they only used their knowledge for good. :rolleyes:
