Hacking as a term is controversial. It sometimes means that it is something bad, other times is something good. What it basically has to do with is that it is a way to prove and dissaprove curiosity. Curiosity is the way to go forward. Hacking is something to prove that!

Hacking something sometimes makes it better, more advanced and more "open". Openess is another controversial word that many people mistake it with something being free which is not but it is directly related to hacking since hacking is the way to openess...

To be hacked is something that many people try to avoid, is it a shame?
Well it depends on the context, if being defiant or arrogant caused hacking then yes it is a shame for the person being hacked...
If not then it surely is not, and provides the means to move forward, to evolve and to "open minds"...

Hacking is more than a word, is a way of living for many people,

what a lot should respect is the ability for some people to do it when it is used for a good cause

That's when the difference between Blackhat and Whitehat comes into play. It's both bad and good. Depending on the way you use it.

I don't see the point of this thread. You could have just said:

Perspective.

Then again there's a 25 character limit.
