Way of life --- @Phannarith, I agree with the factors you list. In addition, I believe that some hackers or group of hackers (involved in cybercrime) in fact do have a special way of life. They operate in a niche area that to ordinary people is unknown (coding, software development, hacking), they possess knowledge that helps them to easily go behind and above the laws and jurisdictions...many of them maybe see themselves as modern Robin Hoods...others probably have patriotism or national romanticism or other ideological motives - especially the ones working for state security / military cyberwarfare teams and like.
