Havrosh Naik

Havrosh, the computer psychic. At the age of 17 he shut down an entire system of network on an island. 30,458 computers crashed simultaneously, each of them with corrupted operating system and bios. All banks, ATM, communication device including cell phones & services were disabled. He did this as a challenge. He was considered the dictionary of language, from the "old school". He made every computer on that network boot from his server and to display his message: "do not challenge me". He strongly believes computers can communicate as they make logical and arithmetic decision everyday. For his beliefs, he proved data can never be deleted and sniffed from distance. Icon of his time, but quit for a more stable life. He stayed one of the most respected and admired hackers so far.
