Most people think of "hacking" as a bad thing and they are right but their is also good hacking as well. Bad hacking is when people try to steal information or overtake a company's website to find out personal information or try and steal money. Good hacking is when specific people are hired to try to break through a security/fire wall so they can change it and make it more secure for the user and the business themselves.
I have personally never hacked or even tried to hack someone or something for goof or for bad because that takes a lot of time and computer skills that I do not have and if you get into trouble there can be a hefty fine or consequence.
In my case with traveling it would be pretty easy for a skilled hacker to put wrongful information about traveling on the internet. "When Pop was Home" is a good example to reference because you can mark or put a location on a specific place and basically lie to other people about either the location or give them a bad review even if the place was very good. Some who can hack well can alter directions or travel information and can be catastrophic in some cases.
Also there is good travel hacking like when people post or use tips and tricks when traveling like using frequent flyer points, booking in advanced, using coupon codes and just personal experience.
