In layman’s terms, hacking is the act of breaking into someone else’s computer to which you have no access and stealing private information by circumventing the security measures. It is dangerous because it sabotages the entire computer system. The origin of the word “hacking” can be traced back to the 1960s and 1970s. Some hackers, called Yippe, were anti-war protesters and members of the Youth International Party.
