I am a hacker, please dont remove me from society for doing something that stimulates and furthers the growth and expansion of my mind and knowledge, all files that are hidden are just waiting to be found.
with the rest, I dont agree, I think there should be programs put in place, and for those that dont serve a purpose, well, lockem up.

Ah alright then, well for future reference, those types of people are more called "crackers", and I dont like those people because they ruin all of my fun because they have to cause harm to others.
