The List Of Motives (3)
- Rebelliousness, challenging the authorities (not only police and government agencies but also system administrators, teachers, parents, and adults in general) so they can show their “hacker power” and feel superior.
- A sense of adventure, the adrenalin rush, the thrill of doing something forbidden, or the fact of owning a system, of “defeating” a PC by making it do one’s bidding.
- Bored by routine.
- Romanticism, tradition, the “myth;” in other words, because it’s “cool.”
- To attract media attention in the hope of becoming famous.
- For money.
- Anger and frustration.
- Political reasons.
