I enjoyed reading Victoria's article "Reasons for Hacking the Home Computer," but I found one error regarding "white hat" hackers. Contrary to what her article states, "white hat" hackers are not at all "illegal hackers;" thus the term "white hat" - i.e. "good guys."
"White hat" hackers are properly defined in the below Wikipedia article regarding 'ethical hacking.' They are, in fact, "ethical" hackers - i.e. security experts paid by the targeted company, to break the defenses of the targeted company, and to report the discovered vulnerabilities back to the management of the targeted company."

Other than that, I found Victoria's article very engaging and informative.
