    1. Why do hackers hack?

      that is interesting that there would be a form of "justifiablee hacking". generally when we form an opinion on haccking we see hackers as those who are trying to steal our personal inforamtion, identity, or our monetary information. If there was a cause that required enough that they felt they needed to hijack internet usage to get the word across that would definitely be a sight to see. I know that a lot of countries sensor media. Even finding out recently that America also attempts to sensor media from the public. I can see in a country that is incredibly sensored the need to be able to reach out and let others know what is happening.

    2. or at school

      This is something that even NSU is aware of, after freshman year they have heavily implemented the SSO sign-on. This may seem time consuming to students having yo log and receive a text 2 times before they can ever access their schoolwork, but NSU is on a very big network with over a 1000 students. NSU try's to regulate the usage of users and ensure they are using the public WIFI for the right means. In a lot of classrooms in Public schools they also do this by forming blockers, I remember wanting to play a online game called "Bad Eggs" and this becoming banned on the internet and nearly impossible to access. Having the firewall is useful and hopefully prevents an amount of misuse. We can even individually download VPN's and Blockers to prevent others effecting or access your personal information.

    3. speaking to a baby through an unsecured baby monitor?

      I agree with others in saying this is truly terrifying. Not only this it stresses the importance of security, ensuring that all passwords are not easily accessible or hackable. he fact is that a lot of our devices we have include mics so we can send and receive messages and when that is compromised how are we to find a solution, or know how much of our personal information has been taken from us. There is some lines that need to be drawn in technological use or at least preventative measures to ensure the safety of ourselves and others!
