    I got in “trouble” for visiting hackthissite as a freshman in high school and junior year I got an NSA pamphlet specifically sent to my guidance counselor for me.

    i didn’t get as far as sql injections. Maybe they thought I was good at covering my tracks.

    I once got detention for “hacking.” All the school computers were on the same network, so if you opened Computer Management, then selected a different computer on the network, you could… get this… eject the disc drive on unsuspecting people. They’d be on their computer, 15 feet away, and then I’d click a button and their disc drive would eject, momentarily confusing them.

    Librarian saw me using the “My Computer” folder to get to Computer Management, apparently that was proof enough. How is using available folders on the computer “hacking”? I have no idea, didn’t seem to be relevant.
