That’s according to his new blog, at least, in which the famed nerdcore hip hopper dispelled certain notions about hacking:
Personally, the most common misconception i find people have about what constitutes hacking by the general public is they feel it requires some exceptional and unique technical prowess. in reality, hacking is all about PEOPLE.
So what’s the key, you might ask? Something more obvious than you might guess, says Mr. Cracker. Human vices, to be more specific. “Every system created thus far, software or hardware, was created by human hands,” he writes. “…most of what constitutes hacking is the exploitation of human emotion, stupidity, laziness, or ignorance.”
There’s more to that last bit. YT Cracker briefly touches on how hacking has reached epidemic-like proportions in certain circles, especially the social networking ones. The problem is really seemingly no-brainer stuff like, using the same password over and over again for all the sites you need to access. Once someone gets that one, it’s all downhill from there. Really though you should check the link out here because his whole blog is pretty damn entertaining.
