I've worked with a number of "ex" hackers, and seen them cross the ethical line too many times. They generally tend to be people lacking a highly developed conscience. I believe you either do or don't have much of a consicience by the time you're ten years old. What makes somebody an "ex" hacker, the fact that they claim they are? That said, there are exceptions. There are a few "ex" hackers I'd trust with the keys to the cyber kingdom.
