    Yes, but kids that age like video games and will push boundaries. So I doubt even the best education could have prevented that.

    To hackers hacking is far more fun than anything some school/uni/employer can come up with (until they’re old enough and realize a criminal record isn’t worth it).

      There are career hackers. Pen testing and white hat hacking is very much a thing. I’ve been in software for two decades, some of the most talented people I’ve worked with had similar back stories.
