Confusion about hacking Hotmail
This may seem like a dumb question but I really am confused on this. But first off let me state that I'm NOT looking to hack into hotmail, NOR do I want to know how.
My question is this. When a person states on here that they are looking to learn how to hack into hotmail, are they wanting to know how to hack into the actual server or are they looking to just get a user's password? I thought just gaining access to anything that wasn't yours, or that you don't have permission to, was illegal. Don't these mail providers (hotmail, yahoo, etc.) have anything in place that can detect when they are being hacked so they can inform the user's they have been compromised? Or do they even bother to inform the user's to avoid them losing confidence in the service?
Any clarification you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to this and I want to make sure I understand.
Thanks.
