Hacking is actually a cyber crime nowadays, which means that there are lots of cyber terrorism would like to hack into either big company or government website which have useful information or secret for them etc. But, sometimes, they will have difficulty to hack into those big company or government website by their own. So, now they are more organized and powerful, which they will group up together to break the security wall. Hacking is not only hack within their own country, but is between different country. They would like to arrange some hackers to other country which we called that as 'economic espionage' (spy) to stole some useful information or secrets. They can just make this hacking as an easy job if they cooperate to stole it in different country, they can either exchange their information or collect all together. For my analysis, through this action, they can even earn more money in a short time and also get more information or secret. Other than that, there is also war between hackers, which we called it Net Wars. This is something like they are fight between each other, this is always happened in between white-hat hacker and black-hat hackers. Government or big company will always have professional hackers there to help them cope the terrorism hacker. This is something like cyber attacks.
Conclusion, i feel that hackers have their own economy which is like they are actually doing business too, but its just in a different way with the actual business in this cyber age. They can actually make hacking as a good activities like the video of Cyber Security Challenge UK on BBC One Show. This is a good way to train teenagers to become a white hat hackers which help to cope with the cyber
war.With this, they can make hacking as a proper job, and make everyone change the mind that hackers is actually a hero. Through this kind of activity, they can learned a lot from each other and have communication with each other but not only sit infront the computer and do their own hacking.

What if the corporations and governments are abusing their power? Hacking into their system is illegal but is it bad? Any examples of such cases? Specific hackers you have identified? Is hacking as serious a problem that they can be labeled as 'terrorist'?
