Madison Ceurter 5th period: 5-year-old boy hacks dad's Xbox account

A 5-year-old boy named Kristoffer Von Hassel hacked into his dad's Xbox.  The boy went into his dad's Xbox and went to the menu, tried to put in the password, but he kept putting in the wrong password until it asked for a verification password.  Then Kristoffer put in a password of just spaces and he got into the system.  He was then playing games like Call of Duty that he wasn't supposed to be playing.  You would think that his father would be mad, but he was actually proud of Kristoffer for figuring out how to log in without knowing the password.  The father said Kristoffer has also figured out how to log into phones without knowing the password.  Who knows what this boy could become in the technology world.  He could become a professional hacker and hack programs that are very important.  It is scary how much people know about computers and technology.

  1. I agree that it's scary how much people know about technology. Especially in this situation with a kid so young. This just shows how much technology is taking over today's world.
