As the world becomes more digitalized, there are more entry points for hackers.

There are more hackers breeding every day, and more brilliant minds are turning into hackers. Security has advanced, but so have hackers.

Where there's a will, there's a way. Hackers tend to find a way. Code is also expanding. More lines of code means more probability that there is an exploit that can be [used].

A lot of hackers set up scam sites. They can impersonate a site like PayPal, for instance.

Almost all exploits are simple mistakes.

Back in my era, hacking was all about messing with other hackers. It was a hacker war.

It's much easier to become a hacker now. It was a private community before and you had to find your way in, like tumbling down a rabbit hole. Today, there are all-in-one desktops fully equipped with tools pre-built into the operating system, all related to hacking. They are all very powerful tools and free to download.
