Most of hacking these days is asking people for their password in a convincing way. Interpret that how you will.

OP, any conflict between two humans is a battle between human brains.

That's phishing, not hacking.

Also this. Even in circumstances of someone getting bodied by someone much larger than them, it would require the one being bodied being retarded enough to even go through with the fight/not figure out how to get away.

Hacking is such a broad term, it covers everything from social engineering to brute force dictionary attacks.
The closest you will get to a battle of minds in IT is virus coders vs anti-malware coders.

Actually DRM vs crackers is a better example.

I miss the days when DRM was so shit even a brainlet like me could edit an .ini

Hacking is actually extremely low skill for the most part. Unless you are designing a new technique yourself, you are just copying and mindlessly attempting various solutions that exist vs another persons computer. It takes no skill.

Not really. The battle is between virus and "anti"-virus creators on one side, and ur mom on the other...

while social engineering is a component of "Hacking", that statement is way the fuck off from fact.

Depends. If the two computers are of equal callibur, yes. Absolutely.
If you see a mother fucker decimate a server the size of google with a raspberry pi, then you will know that person is a monster.

Is answering your retarded question essentially like one human brain helping another human brain acquire an accurate model of the world?

I am almost baffled by the incredible number of off-topic threads. The thousands oh high schoolers flooding this board really needs to come to an end.
Sage and report.
