Why does every thread become a Whitehat vs Blackhat conversation :/
And you're not a hacker just by using *nix. For example, Linspire users are rarely hackers. (Other than a good looking GUI and easy of use, it's garbage).
Oh here's my definition list:
Cracker - White person.
Hacker - Person who cuts wood.
Whitehat - A hat with white paint pigment.
Blackhat - A hat with black paint pigment.
