Hacking - in any way is "Survival of the fittest in IT"

The word "HACKING" is cruel to me. It makes me feel for those people whose bank accounts are hacked. I can not encourage hacking.

Hacking is like gun skill. It depends on who wields it - a soldier or a thug. This guy is an ethical hacker.

it also won him a bounty of $7,500 (about Rs 50,000).

He's won $9,500 (about Rs 64,000) from AT&T before, Yahoo has given him $5,000 (about Rs 34,000), and he's got $2,000 (about Rs 13,500) from Pebble Smartwatch, besides others.

>> yeah, right. These guys at Rediff are good with their numbers.

Kudos Hemanth! Keep up your good efforts. Also, appreciation for the progressive minded Kerala police who are encouraging and nurturing such talents for the benefit of the society. There could be many more such talents in the country who may not get due recognition due to nepotism and apathy of governments. This news report assumes added significance in view of the digital push given by GOI with undue haste without putting in place required infrastructure, precautionary measures and risk mitigative measures. Will GOI wake up and recognize real talent and capabilities of our youngsters?
