How to be a Hacker ?

You may have seen or read about them, they are in the movies, in the series, in the news. However, even today many people do not know what "hacker" means.
"Hacker" doesn't mean being someone in a dark room transferring millions of dollars in bitcoins to your wallet, stealing some passwords and taking down government websites. "Hacker" is something very different from that.
It takes a brilliant mind to become one and keep this title, if you like solving problems in front of a computer, maybe you are a hacker. They are on a constant learning curve. They can install DOOM on a calculator, create new devices and help others who are on this path. Before calling someone a hacker make sure they are not a lammer.

why would anyone want to be a hacker, lol . I'm not sure that it's possible to learn how to become a hacker just by reading articles on the internet. I think the term hacker is overused anyway. Hacker means a person who's able to penetrate into any server and break it. So theoretically any computer guy that knows what he's doing is capable of hacking. If you want to become a so called hacker just because it's cool or because you want to hack into someone's insta account, then I advise against it. Just nobeliumhackers.com hire a hacker, things will be much easier
