I feel guilty for talking about hacking, because I feel like I'm contributing to more cyber crimes being committed and even getting normal people to commit them. Does anybody else feel the same way?

I don't feel guilty. I can't control what other people do and it is not my intention to get people into hacking. .

I would like to know more about why people do not feel the same way.

>I feel like I'm contributing to more cyber crimes
Yeah I feel you. I get where you're coming from, but when it comes to information and cyber crimes, it goes both ways like a battle of attrition. Opsec gets to reinforce security, criminals find ways around them with the same information. their ways gets talked about, opsec reinforce, and so on.

Like >>20265 , can't control other people intentions. I assume the people here have ethical reasons to use the information they learn/share or just want to do petty "crimes" like accessing wi-fi (my opsec teacher did that in the days of WEP in his uni lol)
I don't think any of us here are big game hackers using the knowledge here for evil or corpo level crimes. Besides, I only know surface level attacks and tricks that most people browsing here would probably know. I don't feel like I'm contributing in any way other than being a parrot.

Anything that does any amount of damage to this insane society is fine by me.

I think it's best to do what you can to feel better. Maybe try building up your peers instead of trying to tear them down.

You are not changing the society by a meaningful way when you talk with others. You are not responsible from what other people do, even if you showed them what could be done.
You look like a good kid, don't waste your time thinking you have an impact in our society, talk about whatever you want and don't feel guilty about it.
Hacking is also not something bad per se, it's a fun hobby to have if you don't mess around with big corps.
