HACKERS
Man is the only animal that stores wealth. Prehistoric men stored bones because they used them as weapons. Later, men stored salt because they used it as currency, and even later they stored gold, silver and precious stones. In our present time, information is the most valuable commodity.
In the past, people used to store goods and there was always someone trying to steal them.
Today there are people who steal information from computers. They are called hackers. Most hackers are young, male and love computers. All they need is a computer and a telephone line. They use the telephone line to connect their computers to other computers.
Good hackers can enter even well-protected systems. They can transfer large amounts of money from one bank to another. They can get free air tickets, and use someone else's credit card number to buy anything.
Hackers steal infomation for fun. Many others sell information to organized crime gangs.
More companies use computers everyday, so there will be even more computer crimes in the future.

❑ TRADUÇÃO-TEXTO:
HACKERS
Man is the only animal that stores wealth.
O homem é o único animal que armazena riqueza.
Prehistoric men stored bones because they used them as weapons.
Os homens pré-históricos armazenavam ossos porque os usavam como armas.
Later, men stored salt because they used it as currency, and even later they stored gold, silver and precious stones.
Mais tarde, os homens armazenavam sal porque o usavam como moeda, e ainda mais tarde eles armazenavam ouro, prata e pedras preciosas.
In our present time, information is the most valuable commodity.
Em nosso tempo presente, a informação é a mercadoria mais valiosa.
In the past, people used to store goods and there was always someone trying to steal them.
Antigamente, as pessoas costumavam armazenar mercadorias e sempre havia alguém tentando roubá-las.
Today there are people who steal information from computers. They are called hackers.
Hoje, há pessoas que roubam informações de computadores. Elas são chamadas de hackers.
Most hackers are young, male and love computers.
A maioria dos hackers é jovem, do sexo masculino e ama computadores.
All they need is a computer and a telephone line. They use the telephone line to connect their computers to other computers.
Tudo o que eles precisam é de um computador e uma linha telefônica. Eles usam a linha telefônica para conectar seus computadores a outros computadores.
Good hackers can enter even well-protected systems. They can transfer large amounts of money from one bank to another. They can get free air tickets, and use someone else's credit card number to buy anything.
Bons hackers podem entrar até mesmo em sistemas bem protegidos. Eles podem transferir grandes quantias de dinheiro de um banco para outro. Eles podem obter passagens aéreas gratuitas e usar o número do cartão de crédito de outra pessoa para comprar qualquer coisa.
Hackers steal infomation for fun. Many others sell information to organized crime gangs.
Hackers roubam informações por diversão. Muitos outros vendem informações para gangues do crime organizado.
More companies use computers everyday, so there will be even more computer crimes in the future.
Mais empresas usam computadores todos os dias, então haverá ainda mais crimes de computador no futuro.
