AAAAHH! Now I got all the puzzles in my view. OHAI, CARI. :) /me facepalms hard/
how do you conclude that aaron was not "hacking" PLEASE EXPLAIN ???????
Well... There are two ways the word "hacking" is used most often. 1. breaking into computer systems and generally doing some computery-evil stuff 2. doing some amazing technical things So, what Aaron did was in no way fitting the 2., right? He just put a laptop in a closet and downloaded stuff. Neither does it fit 1. -- he did not break any kind of security systems, cracked passwords, etc., he just put a laptop on a network that had access to these documents and downloaded the documents. That's all. On a different level, it was indeed consistent with hacker ethos, esp. "information wants to be free". But that doesn't mean it was a "hack", in any meaning of the word. Also, inb4 "hacker means X - no, it means Y" shitstorm -- Pozdr rysiek
