* note these 2 aren't the official definitions, just what they are. * 1. The media says that hackers are cyber-criminals who break into your computer, plant viruses, and steal government secrets. * 2. Really(and this most people do not know) hackers are just incredibly computer talented people who may break into computers, but just for the challenge of it. A true hacker doesn't steal secrets or plant viruses, hackers are good people who wouldn't dream of doing this kind of stuff. * The action of hacking is breaking into a computer. Nothing else.

This part is just an extra sort of thing but people that break into computers to plant viruses and steal very important info are actually called crackers. And there are hackers who break into computers, discover all the vulnerabilities, and then tell the person who owns the computer or network these vulnerabilities and helps them fix these weakness before crackers can get in and cause damage. These hackers are Ethical Hackers. And some people think that a firewall can keep a cracker out. WRONG!!! Firewalls can block some forms of hacking but not all.

And this might help you trust what I have said, but I am actually learning how to be an Ethical Hacker, so I know.

Has there been a lot of coumper hacking?

All I can tell you is that the issue is fraught with hype. A lot of people make a lot of money by making out that computer hacking ('cracking') is a bigger problem than it really is. 'hacking' and 'cracking' are two different things. Technically it would be impossible to be arrested for 'hacking' because hacking is completely legal. 'Cracking' is illegal.
