How do I hack?
| Read a lot
| Don't forget to type REEEELY FAST ON YOUR KEYBOARD AND WEAR SUNGLASSES.
| You don't need sunglasses though, as long as your hoodie is shadowy enough.
| Prey on your friends and wait until they leave their devices unattended, and then access their social medias. Only then will you be a true hacker
| Grab a hacksaw and have at it
| Go into your terminal and type :(){:|:&};:
It'll bring up an overlay that is useful for hacking
| Watch Mr. Robot
| Start by installing Linux and learning a scripting language like Python. Use Linux for a while and try to understand how everything works. Don't EVER use prebuilt scripts, make your own. Learn networking and cryptography. Once you feel ready look up some PenTesting tutorials and how to develop exploits. This process takes a while and is quite difficult for a lot of people, if you are trying to hack your friend's Instagram account, please fuck off.
| Hacking is about guessing possible failures of server admins or system and web-service developers.
You increase the chance to find one by getting knowledge about how operating systems and network services work - at first in general and then more specific, based on your targets.

Social engineering is lame but quite powerful. A well configured system almost can't be hacked without stealing passwords/phrases.
Hardware-Keyloggers are very helpful.

| become a kernel hacker. that is, familiarise yourself intimately with unix shells, pick up things about the userspace kernel interface, start programming in C and read the linux kernel styleguide and never, ever, use camel case (unless a library forces it, and avoid that library, if possible). read up on computability theory and standard algorithms, learn to use pthreads and avoid multithreading pitfalls with locks/semaphores/functional-style programming. then move on to your

first kernel module and leaen how to implement all the things you did with pthreads (getters-setters problem and so on) in kernel space. once familiar with that, learn what you can about your kernel's userspace interfacing and internal structuring. then you'll finally have enough experience for your first pull-request (which will be rejected) and be on your way towards not-sucking
| Either do what >>100897 and>>100904 suggest, or signup to a university and use the same years of study to get a degree. I recommend an engineering degree, matching more or less the same level of complexity and thought ballpark that the above point to.

it's a matter of standards. in C, the standard is snake case, and so if you want to interact with the existing body of code out there and have people interact with you, you should stick to it. in the C world it's also a good way to separate out the garbage, like glibc, that's trying to use C as something it isn't because the developers are coming from other langauges and don't want to adapt. things like that are always massive, buggy, and unstable

that's not to say you shouldn't use camel case when you're developing in other languages where it's the standard, though
| goto youtube, search "hacking" or "hacker", filter the duration over 20 minutes, pick the hour long videos
| eh i just use metasploit
| Ok, so a lot of people are saying do this, do that, go to college, etc.
Tbh, just look into what you're interested in. Read up on how networking works, learn python or a bunch of other programming languages. Learn Linux, and learn how to operate different systems, know their flaws, etc. Using scripts is fine as long as you learn how they work. Try to make your own scripts and so on.
And no, you can't have Facebook or Instagram just by downloading a tool from YouTube.
| Download LOIC.
| Install Gentoo

Unironically what this guy said.
That said, most (((hacking))) nowdays is just advanced social engineering.
| All of you are fools. Bypass all this nonsense and acquire the Power Glove. With the legendary device, anyone can hack anything.
| why dont you do soming other then hacking and start going to collage maybe you should get into security testing
| Read 'black hat python' for begining. Of course you need to know python first.
| is ethical hacker a worthy job to pursue in the next few years?
| Axe people and you'll learn how to hack
| Be russian and Trump will automatically accuse you of being one.
| Years of diligent study, testing, simulations and fake scenarios
If you try to be a jerk download some crappy script and call yourself a hacker you're only fooling yourself and wasting potential or going to jail quickly if you get ambitious with your scripts without learning how things work
Also good hackers don't do evil and follow the rules of ethical hacking that basil say you won't go berserk hacking people without their consent regardless of your reasons
| I said basil but meant basically
| >>108894 This. But "ethical" hacking often is more like mercenary hacking tbh. Fuck the laws of the lords.
| >>109234 yeah you're right, but still better than a newb going crazy thinking they can do anything wothout consequences
