I wonder if the Germans have a word for the awkward envy-tinted schadenfreude I feel when reading these SIM &#x2F; social engineering &#x2F; trivial-hack articles.<p>I know the kids involved (usually second-degree, they are younger now), the methods involved, and how do not do it wrong, and most importantly, how to not get caught ( in theory)...<p>Maybe it&#x27;s the general awareness &#x2F; moral conscientiousness that tilts the scale enough to inhibit me from it, maybe it&#x27;s the fully developed brain, maybe it&#x27;s the lack of (teenager hormonal raging) balls; but the feeling of missing out while 75% of others in my &quot;class&quot; sit on a beach drinking Daiquiris with blondes in a crypto-tax haven and the other 25% sit in federal prison sometimes make me yearn to had rolled the dice a few more times.
