I'm not saying that cybersecurity folk are the bad ones but that they even have to exist is a sad statement about the corrupted world we live in. Why anyone would deliberately create computer viruses is beyond my understanding at all.
Isn't life hard enough for most of us? With our daily grind and frustrations, and then having to deal with computer hackers and people tyrying to steal our personal info and bring down our national systems -- the sickness of hackers is beyond my understanding.
