I can't judge whether their subconscious is trying to absolve them of blame they know they deserve, or if they honestly don't know the difference between a virus and a "hack". I'd wager most of them simply lump "hack", "virus", and "generally bad computer thingy" into the same pile and because "hack" comes earlier in the dictionary, they use it when searching for the best definition for what they're experiencing (and maybe paying me to resolve). | |
