What's the closest thing to a superpower that can actually exist?🧐
<span class="html-content">
<p>It's kinda weird because I always think hacking is a little bit of a superpower. ... With the ability you can see through everyone's personal lives whether authorized or not. ... The fact you can manipulate people because you can hack and learn everything you want to know about their personal lives in a matter of minutes — that's truly an immense amount of power.😬</p>
<p>I recently have just finished watching “The Internet’s own Boy”; a film about Aaron Swartz. He has achieved a lot in terms of ‘hacking’ society and politics before his tragic suicide.</p>
<p>In the course of the Documentary, he and his brothers speak of Hacking as a superpower, as they are able to achieve super-human things with the help of a computer and some code. This got me thinking, and brings me to my point and question:</p>
<p>Is Hacking a Superpower?💪</p>
<p>🦾 The ability to manipulate phones, computers, code, scripts, software, apps, and other virtual things is regarded as fairly trivial, but when these devices communicate and control real-life things, they have real-life consequences. As I looked at this abstractly I began to think, that surely hacking can be considered a form of superpower, and it is a power publicly available for anyone to posses.

At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
