Counterhacking

Quote:

“Is hacktivism morally justified?”

Expectation

I expect to learn to secure my computer from hackers

Book Review:

In this chapter, I noticed a lot of ways not to offend others or abuse

their human rights. Here are the six hacker ethics as summarize by Levy
(1984) that touch my life – 1. Access to computers should be unlimited and
total, 2. All information should be free, 3. Mistrust authority, 4.hackers should
be judged by their hacking, not by bogus criteria such as degrees, age, race,
or position, 5. You create art and beauty on a computer, and lastly 6.
Computers can change your life for better. I love the way it was created. It
keeps me motivated.
