So do you think it is ever ok to break into someone's email account behind their back? You might think someone is hiding something because the person is acting strange or for whatever reason you simply don't trust them. And then when you find out something 'horrible' do you think you are within your rights to go and argue with the other person (like pick a fight)? To me it seems like the height of presumptuousness but I don't know, you tell me. Until I am ready to get some of my body parts rearranged, I wouldn't go sneaking into people's privacy and then try to run up on them with it.

People carry on with this sneaky behaviour and create a lot of mischief. What do you think, it's justified if they 'found out' something? I don't know if anyone here engages in this activity or has been the victim of such. I would like to know how you view breaking into people's online accounts. It's break in because it's an unauthorised access outside the presence/knowledge of the account holder.

Many of those "lifehacks' channels and Elsagate content came from stolen gmail accounts. Youtube is doing nothing about it.

If somebody want information about somebody, he will hack email, smartphone and all social media accounts. Best is not use any of those for sensitive stuff. Under sensitive stuff I think send nudes, gossip others. For such things use forums without social media login or make fake profile but don't tell anybody about it.

Hacking into another person's email and reading their personal mails is an illegal activity. If someone did that to you Lushh, you are well within your rights to take legal action in relation to it. The availability of legal recourse might be enough to silence a hacker, even if you would prefer not take legal action.

I can't see how they are so loose on a platform like that. You can just steal private information and use it publicly like there's no shame in it.

I have never hacked into anyone's email so far, neither will I ever do it. Not only because I do not know how to do it, but also because it is an illegal activity. I feel that law enforcing agencies are within their rights to hack into a criminal's system to find any incriminating evidence against the criminal.

A Youtube channel I subscribed to whose owner died 6 years ago got it's gmail account stolen and its now having lots of those "life hacks" videos.

And I bet they are reaping the benefits without even the decency to give credit to the original source. Why would they? The information was stolen in the first place.

It's not right at all, and I think only scammers do something like that. I mean a reasonable person won't just go and hack your email just like that.

If a person hacked your email it would be a terrible experience because there is a high chance that they would blackmail you and demand a huge amount of money or else they might leak a very sensitive information about you. So, change your passwords often and create a stronger password like putting special characters so hackers would have a hard time brute forcing or cracking your complicated password.

In this generation, shame has no effect again on people. May we not fall into their hands... Some people are ordained to do goo likewise some people are also ordained to do evil. whichever one you like to belong
