Hacker breaks government data to prove its poor security - Faw_Peter - 05-14-2008
A hacker in Chili entered the government and military services and copied confidential data about 6 million people. This information was published in the internet. He left a message after hacking, which says that he did this in order to prove the state's feeble security system. That was a convincing argument! :lol:

I would like to see this. Even in Chili I think that international protection systems are defending the data, so it's very difficult to do that. But, if the hacker did that, then he should be employed by the Chili government so he could build a strong protection system

That's what actually happened to a hacker in Australia, about 5-6 years ago, can't tell you exactly. What I know is that after he was arrested, he was proposed to work for the Government, and the guy agreed. His name is considered to be confidential information

ohhhhhhh, they forgot to include me there... don't forget about me guys
But, seriously "legal hackers" are much weaker than the criminal ones.

no, both of them are smart. The difference is that one understands he mustn't break the law and use his knowledge to help the country, and the other doesn't.

hacker is an inborn feeling. One can't learn becoming a hacker during his life, regardless of how much he studies and wants. The boy who broke the government data is talented.
