What i Learned
basically what i learned from the article and from what the video and from Hacking in general when researching it is that it can be done very easily these days it seems like because not alot of company's and websites have the high quality programs that they need to protect their websites and it can be hacked very easily also what i leanred was just by hacking a websites like a tiwtter account and poasting false imformation really causes people to be panic and not know what to do people will belive what they hear from NBCs Twitter because they follow them and they are a big company/News company and its just crazy how they could be hacked that easy and flase things can be posted and people belive it untill they come out and say its false but by the time they do that all the people that heard it is panicing and it could of caused a bunch of bad things to happen in the wait time. i also learned that when a huge company is hacked by hackers the company always corrects their security system so they are more protected and so it wont happen again because no one wants that to happen regardless so when you think about it its kinda a good thing when a company gets hacked becauses its a learning process its basically a hint that they should probly fic their secuirty and they more then likey always does so when you think about it a company being hacked is kinda a good thing but it can be bad if the hackers take information that they shouldnt have so it has its perks and cons when being hacked.
