Re: Rogers' highest tier to be 3000/384

You're right, but I think the vast majority of Canadians just don't give a rat's ass about this kind of stuff. It's the kind of stuff "hackers" would only care about, not me. I just don't think people care about caps one way or another.

That's a very good point, too bad people would be shocked what "hacker" really means. I mean some of the best software engineers are hackers, even o'l Bill G. is still considered one of the best hackers in the world.

The limited sucess in changing how the news world uses hacker, script kiddie, cracker, ect has not spread beyond the use of my local newspaper and the local news channel.

Bah, why make a difference? There's only two categories, the elite, and the non-elite.

hacking is basically programming / modifying things... like tweaking...

what most people know "hacking" as is cracking - people who break into systems etc..
