Wouldn't it be nice if they'd do some good in the world? Can you come up with useful ways for them to use their talents?

One of my thoughts was for them to attack websites that deserve their attentions. Like, say, nazi supremicist types. The ones that WANT their members to go out and hurt people that are different. If all our wonderful hackers would go after those sites and make their life 'interesting' why I'd be tempted to give them a medal.

What useful things can you come up with for hackers to use their 'powers' for?

Actually the government actually hires hackers for differnet reasons. some hackers hired by the government are used to test the security of the system and such. their are good hackers and bad hackers and they can do different things:D

That I know about. Just like they hired the actual guy that the movie "Catch me if You Can" was based on and he's a world-class security expert now.

But that's only if they catch them. It's the really hidden ones that need to be redirected to something useful.

The world most secured sites like NASA and MICROSOFT have all been hacked succefuly and what does that mean? it means no site is more secure and prone from hacking..hackers most of the time just try to prove a point..but thats being dumb!


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

That's why it would be so much fun if they'd go after those slimy sites promoting hate over nothing more than a different color or religion. Let them be the targets, they deserve it!

well, as such no hackers have irritated me..but once one friend of mine after a fight to trouble me hacked into my account and msged others..!! it was really an ugly act of his to trouble me...


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Yeah, that would be nasty.

Actually there are people that are hackers that use their skills for good, they're called programmers.


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Yeah, but those are the ones that have grown up a bit. I mean the ones that refuse to. They'd rather run around causing havok. I say, send them to websites that deserve a bit of havok. Pedophile sites, that stormfront.org (NOT a referral, it's a hate site), or other creeps that need to be gotten rid of.

T HAT WOULD BE A VERY GOOD CHOICE TO SEND HACKERS TO. ONE I'D LIKE TO SEE THEM GET ON THE BAND WAGON IS SITES THAT CHILDREN GO TO THAT THET SHOULDN'T. There are so mnay young people that get themselves in trouble by putting personal things on the web 7 THERE ARE GOOD FOR NOTHING JERKS OUT THERE READY TO JUMP ON TH INFORMATION THAT SHOULD NOT BE ON THERE TO START WITH. wHERE ARE THE PARENTS WHEN THEY ARE DOING THIS. I think all child molesters should be de-balled& the women should just be shot. SORRY, SORRY PEOPLE IN MY OPINION.


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Amen!! Actually, even parents that are on the ball have a hard time keeping up with what the kids are putting up. They can do it at any library, through the phones, friend's houses. Kids are so darn tech-friendly, and we're the generation behind them. It's a bit hard keeping on top of them.

I'm all for the de-balling!

I'd like to see hackers go after stormfront.org (NOT a referral). Legally, nobody can touch them since we have freedom of speech. But they're allowed to rant about anybody different, stir up hate against whomever, it's just not right. They're just not right. I'm not Jewish, my actual heritage is German. What the Nazis did is a horror that shouldn't be talked about as if they had a right to do it. It's a disgusting view.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ANTIQUELADY (11238)   ranked 635 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

I have never been to that soit. Don't think i'd like it either. I don't do much exploring on the computer & don't know about sites like that. THEY SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED ON HERE. I worry about young people & what they can get into 7 THEY ARE ADVENTOROUS for sure. Guess i would have been to when i was young.H ave a happy day.

Those hackers could track down peodophiles and report them to the police and get them arrested that would put their brilliant minds to good use.They could attack any site that works on young people to hurt themselves,we have a site in England dedicated to suicide in school children if you ever did.May be they could go afte them instead of normal webb users.


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

There you go!! An excellent idea!! Hackers are people that are far too intelligent for the rest of us, if they'd go after scumballs they'd be more vigilantes than anything else. I like that idea!


myLot reputation of 95/100. suzzy3 (3924)   ranked 1,340 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

They could solve so many crimes and help the police no end and put these awful people behind bars where they belong.


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Yeah. They could be such an asset to society, if we could only convince them to do so. Have to try to think of pranks that would tickle their fancy and gently guide them to doing some good.

a few hackers, after being caught, have worked to catch other hackers

A few have even done it on their own.

One virus that went around was actually created by a class trying to be trained to catch and "disinfect" other viruses.


maxxblu300 (6)   ranked 4,196 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Its amazing how people have such a knowledge on computers. I think people should be taking these skills and creating programs. The power that they have can really create some spectacular things


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (15206)   ranked 13 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

me... I have to consult the BLIND roommate for advice on the computer!


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

As they say, the best way to catch a thief is to send another thief after them.

hackers, and people who create and/or deliberately spread viruses (not always the same concept or the same people) have skills that could be put to better use. In many ways they have the mentality of little boys who have not grown up. The task is to find out who they are and persuade them (forcefully?) to mature.
Passing thought - how many female hackers are there out there?


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

Hard to say. That's why I thought of pointing them towards creeps online. Little boys don't like to be told what to do, nor are they good at being good. So let them practice their destructive tendencies on people who richly deserve it! I think that would be a good use of their mischief.

 
9. myLot reputation of 85/100. lovedude (1614)   ranked 51 out of 5,664 in computer   6 months ago

Well It is really an new question. you brought my thought:-) I like to hack network PCs and Laptops.. but to hack any government organization or public company is not a good way as at the end anyhow you are going to caught:P but to hack yahoo or google is really fun....


myLot reputation of 98/100. snowcat46 (1103)   ranked 249 out of 5,664 in computer  6 months ago

I dislike the thought of hurting innocent people. But when you think about what the hate sites are doing, like stormfront, inciting people to hurt others and think themselves superior just cause of their skin color, well. That's a far cry from innocent.

Legally, they have freedom of speech. But they don't allow regular people (the voice of reason) to say anything on their little hate site unless it's what they want to hear. Just think how much fun it would be to cause them a little constructive mayhem!

 
10. myLot reputation of 62/100. myx_03 (409)   6 months ago

Somehow... They are useful, but not all hackers have a good intention too... There hacker use their talent just for their own happiness. Sometimes they make one's life miserable too. I hope that they use their talent for good.
