From the last post, i've talk about the "cyberfeminism" which is the word that i found out is interesting. So, for this post, i decided to go further on the female hacking. Most of the woman who will participate in hacking is because they don't really satisfied with their own life. Most of them are highly educated and financially independent, that's why they use the different way to wreak their dissatisfaction. When we talk about hacking, male will come to our mind then female first, so, i found out that female who hack into internet have their own personal reason. From my research, i realize that hacking have involved some psychology problem. For example, case of Susan Headly. She was a very talented hacker. She are willing to learn just to show her own status in this community. She hacked into her lover, Roscoe phone and computer, because Roscoe decided to marry other girl but not her. Susan decided to revenge him by collected all this document to prove that he is actually a hacker. From this, i can see that hacking is not only just an interest for those hackers, but,it have relationship with some psychology things. How if we can change those bad sentiment into a positive energy for those hackers. For my own opinion, i feel that government can train those woman which have the desire to make themselves have more status in both real world and virtual world by let them be a white-hat hacker, and let them become a hero of hacker in the future. Normally, there's just a few female which have interest in hacking, but, most of these female have their own reason why they have interest in hacking. For my analysis, hacking can let people wreak their own dissatisfaction and we can call them the hero, because they are actually change their negative mind into something which is useful for this virtual world.
