But who isn't? :)
Recently i read the book "Stealing the Network - How to Own the Box"
Something from there:
"It’s strange how hackers’ minds work.You might think that white hat
hackers would be on one end of the spectrum and black hat hackers on the
other. On the contrary, they are both at the same end of the spectrum, with
the rest of the world on the other end.There really is no difference between
responsible hacking and evil hacking. Either way, it’s hacking.The only dif-ference
is the content. Perhaps that’s why it’s so natural for a black hat to go
white, and why it’s so easy for a white hat to go black.The line between the
two is fine, mostly defined by ethics and law. To the hacker, ethics and laws
have holes, just like anything else."
