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

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

When I was hacking, it was more pushing the status quo and seeing how far you can go.

Humans make mistakes. Programmers are bound to make mistakes. Hackers, you can bet your life, are going to be there to exploit those mistakes.

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.

In the hacking world, security is more of a response than a proactive measure. They wait for hackers to attack and then they patch, based on the attacks.
