That's my point, calling it a hobby gives a legitimizing impresion. Hacking
into other people's systems can no longer be called a hobby than robbing
banks can. It's not neutral, it carries a criminal element. Why is it so
hard to understand that certain "bit and bytes" can fall into "other
people's property" category? It's their system, their data. You have no
right whatsoever, even with good intentions, to violate their property.
