Hmm. The sentences were independent of each other. Write tutorials. And do not use Windows/Mac. Use LINUX or UNIX.

last year's La Times reporter at defcon only proves that hackers very rarely disclose any exploit, especially that they found.
Yeah. That is true. But that is not the point here. Its not the truth that matters. Like all those Pseudo-hacker movies.

lol they almost never join any campaigns, unless it deals with gov-t sniffing their traffic

hackers thrive on the information protocol

since they mostly use open OSes, they don't fight for p2p, you are confusing them with crackers
Oh. You just need to get famous , with an enigmatic past. And these small little fights are just the in-thing at the moment.

Anyway, all this might be a little factually wrong. But this is not how to become a hacker but only how to become a pretend-hacker that the ordinary populace can find cool.

And I agree, I shall keep cleaning it up and make it as factual as I can. [Moments of boredom and bad hacker representations in media force me to write this. with what i have said, popular media will identify you as a hacker. but again, i might be wrong]
