School for hackers

A report today suggests that there's a plan to teach hacking techniques. The Hacker High School at the University of La Salle in Barcelona will be offering a hacking course to its students.

The purpose of the course, according to its organizers, is to help students protect themselves from hacker attacks: 'We are taking kids who will see this kind of illegal activity, and showing them how it is done, what's happening.' They claim that attitudes to hacking are like old attitudes to sex: while everyone's doing it, few are talking about it.
