I think thats the exact quote...but then again, the exact quote doesn't exactly fit here, does it?

Star Trek: First Contact... Exact quote...

BORG: We are the Borg. Lower your sheilds and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.

another "teach me to hack" post. You'd think, with all of this information in one place (the internet) it would be easy to learn how to hack. You'd think by now somone would've written a tutorial, neigh MANY tutorials on computer security. Man! wouldn't it be great if people had a place to go, and chat and read, and learn about computer security in a fun, informative little community... OH, WAIT, WE TOTALLY DO!! people have gotten lazy. Noone wants to sit down and do some damn work anymore. Noone wants to code for 16 hours just to satisfy their curiosity. <SARCASM>I remember when hackers stayed up all night, trying commands on a new system, looking for holes he could exploit to gain illegal access, now children can use canned programs to break the law... what has happened to our MORALS, MAN? </SARCASM>I remember sitting at my father's pentium 75mhz, with a 14.4kbps connection to AOL, and a windoze 95 command prompt, port scanning password authentication servers for holes. Now I sit at a 1.1ghz Duron, listening to people who can't even build a computer asking me how to break into one. FIRST THING'S FIRST, *******... I say, if you want to learn to break security, do what I did. TEACH YOURSELF, because noone else who is willing to teach you how to gain illegal entrance to a computer system is trustworthy. And if you need the assurance of 0Oh G33z, GANGZTA HAX0rz on IRC, you should REALLY ASK YOURSELF WHY!!! Why whould you want the respect and admiration of guys who have nothing better to do BS and intentionally misspell their own name on IRC? I did an experiment once.. Last year I stumbled onto an IRC server with 1337 Hax0rz scrolling and tagging the server with nonsense. I did a whois on the three most vocal users. all three had serious security holes in their system i could've exploited to gain access and wreak havok on their terminals.. one of them was even infected with the Netbus PATCH trojan, meaning, anyone with a copy of netbus had COMPLETE CONTROL over his computer. Once I told them this, one of them threatened to TOS me, (assuming I was an AOL member like himself) another begged me not to HAX0R him, and the third asked me how to fix the problem... I sent him here... :-)
