While the hacker bashes furiously away at his keyboard while some tense music plays. The next thing you know, 5 seconds later, he's cracked it! Becoming a master hacker requires years of study. Studying is not fun. We are busy people, we do not have time to study. In this video, I will show you how you can look like a master hacker without effort.
