Even
though hacking causes a lot of distress for people, it does have its own
advantages. Hackers, in their idealistic naiveté, reveal the facts that
they discover, without regard for money, corporate secrets or government
cover-ups. Hackers actually allow people to be aware of the wrong doings
of organizations and the governments.
Through
hacking, the weaknesses in a computer system can be found out and hence
are improved on. This makes the computer system more secured. Hacking
also helps to generate results in a particular program faster. For
example, you are playing a computer game.
of having to play all
the way from level 0 to level 100 000 to finish the game, which would
probably take you at least two to three months to do so, if you know how
to hack the game, you could complete the game within one or two weeks.
A lot of
times, new technologies are designed by those who were hacking the old
technologies. The result is usually more security and systems that know
what people will find useful.
Basically,
hackers are the one who are always pushing strong encryption. Many
hackers actually have Websites to provide information about how
different hacks are done and what could be done to avoid and prevent
them. Hence we are faced with a dilemma;
should we be grateful to the hackers for hacking our computer and
network systems so that we could improve on the security systems, or
should we berate them for giving us so many problems and inconveniences?
