Hackers

There are two very important terms, which are misused by many of us on a day-to-day basis. These words are hackers and crackers By hacker, you probably think of some teenager living in their parents garage who has way too much time on their hands. The truth is, most of the successful hackers who create viruses are really intelligent adults who will spend great amounts of time creating a virus that will make your life miserable. Sometimes they are paid to do this, other times they are just bored.

Crackers aren’t the kind of crackers you eat. Crackers are hackers whose work focuses on finding glitches or codes in games that make them easier. Crackers aren’t very well known and are mostly referred to as hackers.

In recent years, hacking has become a major problem in the world of the internet. Through the innovation of the internet, companies such as Norton and Symantec have created virus protection. Symantec has created programs that can protect you from 69,481 computer viruses. So, everyone say, “Thanks Symantec!” If a hacker can really get past all of that, then we are in BIG trouble. This is just some information on hackers and the innovation of security against them

Really creative, and one of the most detailed videos (in a descriptive way). But some moments were REALLY corny.
