Teens see hacking as a casual pastime

A report of 4000 14-18 year-olds shows some very surprising data.

20% have some 'advanced' hacking knowledge and a third of them sat they have used it.

66% say they have successfully hacked instant messaging and/or social networking accounts of people known to them.

Even allowing for teenage braggadocio these are still significant figures. What will it mean as this generation grows up?
