The Stuxnet virus

Don't understand why these hackers want to do what they do. Those people are really smart and would be amazing all the good they could do if they only would instead of trying to destroy.

The Stuxnet virus

Hackers find it a challenge to prove to everyone what they can do. Most are probably geeks with no lives that have nothing better to do than think up things that will gain a lot of attention.
