2 examples of way in which computer and people are effected when computer are hacked?

Depends on what kind of hacker you are. There are three types of hackers: white hat, grey hat and black hat.

White hat hackers are hackers you are given permission by people to test the security of their computer systems. For example, the government or some important business might hire a hacker to see how vulnerable their computers are. The hacker is given the permission to run some tests and that is all. These hackers know when to stop and NEVER do anything criminal at all.

Black hat hackers are the hackers who are malicious and evil. They are the people who write viruses and other types of malware to deliberately enter someone's computer system illegally and steal their confidential information like bank account information. Being a black hat hacker can get you into some serious trouble if you are caught. The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act has the authority to prosecute black hat hackers and sentence them to prison. This act not only makes it a crime to attempt to hack into someone's computer without permission, but also to conspire to do so.

Grey hat hackers are a mixture of both a white and black hat hacker. Grey hats are generally good people, but they will also do bad things time to time. They are hired by people to test their computer systems, but will do malicious things to run tests like infecting the system with a virus or such. Sometimes they will deliberately leave the virus there on purpose just so they can monitor the computer even though the client hired them out of trust. Grey hat hackers can be prosecuted just like a black hat hacker.
