I was the first person I knew to hack an account, way before there was even an Internet. It was high school, I hacked most of the faculty's accounts by guessing the passwords which happened to be their first names. What's funny is I was suspected of doing the hacking but without proof I wasn't prosecuted. What I did get caught for was copying a file from an open network drive to my account, which was very harmless. Faculty just didn't know enough about the systems to realize it was harmless so I got suspended. Go figure. Being suspected of hacking the faculty accounts did not help me there.
