In conclusion, the hacking world is very diverse. There are a large number of individuals around the world who are willing to exploit entities; there are a large number of individuals around the world who are willing to help entities; there is also a large number of people who are willing to devote their own time to improve upon products that they deem "improvable".

   All in all, there are some very bad people in this world. It seems there will be a never ending struggle of dark vs light in the computer security universe. However, many hackers should actually be viewed as the superstars they are. White hats are fighting the good fight, and are quite beneficial to society. Hardware hackers are also, in my opinion, very important people, because they are putting more power into the hands of consumers. I also personally believe the practice of hardware hacking can also be viewed as beneficial the propagation of creativity.

   I hope this brief overview of hacking and the ethics surrounding this topic has been enlightening. I will leave you with a quote from a very outdated, but classic movie.
