Never say never.  The main reason nothing much happens here is that the only people targeting you are invariably ignorant arseholes trying to annoy people or cause various trouble.

Competent hackers can do quite amazing things nowadays if they have a reason for so doing.  One of those reasons may well be declaring that it can not be done. One major aspect of security is maintaining stealth.

Real hackers are very skillful and determined.

Fortunately the zeebs we have to deal with have inverse Time Lord technology heads.

That is they are bigger on the outside than they are on the inside.   :lol:
