-'''Hacking''' may refer to a number of activities, both legal and illegal. These include:
-* "Digital lock-picking", or (illegally) breaking into computer systems; this is also referred to as "cracking", and is the most well known form of hacking
-* Modifying software or hardware in order to violate [[copyright]] law or software licensing agreements (this is also referred to as "cracking" and "piracy")
-* Modifying software or hardware for extra functionality or performance
-* Creating software or devices to solve problems
-* Using an existing computer system in an unusual, clever way to solve a problem
-* Staging pranks
-Hackers act for a variety of reasons, ranging from curiosity and bragging rights to personal gain or [[vandalism]].
-Crackers who act with criminal intent are known as "black hat" hackers. Crackers who don't have a criminal intent (e.g., those paid by software companies to research security issues or investigate new computer viruses) are referred to as "white hat".
