 OMW if u start this debate again I'm going to commit suicide.. Who
gives a crap anyways what a "hacker" really means to normal folks and

your own..

6/2/03 Consider this -

1. Intellectual curiosity is a good thing.

2. Privacy is ALSO a good thing.

3. Making money is a good thing.

4. Most hackers invade privacy for intellectual curiosity.

5. Most white hats want to protect privacy.

6. This battle will never be over.
