In India you are a hacker after you restart the phone and it starts working.
Dude😂😂
@Puritania haha top kek, kid
hahahahahaha
@Puritania racist
rofl xdd
This guy is 19 & makes Computer Science graduates look like bugs.
yeah studying it also but damnnnn
Hes probably programming since he was 7 years old. So he is ways ahead. Thanks to the internet knowledge becane free.
Well, you could learn in internet, you don't need much schooling for programming and become a developer or something. Hacking also didn't always teach in IT/CS curriculum especially if your in 3rd world or developing country. Internet is the key if you want to be a developer, hacker or even a graphics designer/editor.

He looks like a typical Vada Pav Chat guy from India.
DAAYYYUUMMNNN. 😂😂😂😂
Haha, I thought the same.
Nice say😂👌
Haha that's the first thing came into my mind. Looks like an Indian or pakistani chaat wala
Haha I know right ...Holy shitttttt
he found 1600 bugs, i killed around 10000+ bugs everyday.... so why this discrimination
He finds the one that you have missed :p
Nah - he did not find them - The dumb PoS gets the information from areal researcher's report
bruh ur lying u can't kill 10000 bugs in a day he gets paid cuz he steps on more bugs than u
Damn
In order to get paid you need to find the bugs that are formed by 1 and 0s
Lol
Knowledge is power. Look at all that money for what he knows to do well.
true, that decision to just learn!!!
victor nderu however it seems more and more people are refused access to this knowledge every day... we see colleges refusing selective people across the country of not just the United States but Europe as well. My friend works for a college of one of the most elite people in the world being Yale and even then we see selective choice candidates being applied ill tell you first hand that if colleges were fair we would see not as many people that we see at college being in college. Myself included. I’m a token to my own argument. Which makes me sad but I argue reality. Lopez was probably lucky getting his position and it was probably a major luck strike that got him his fortune. Reality is that he is probably a low end kid who got lucky for his decisions he made. Yes he detect bugs in software but even I can do this. It isn’t that hard. Finding all the bugs you can in the software is the hardest thing to do in a manner that will help the software function. He’s not exactly what we call a hacker because hackers usually force their way into databases that they are not allowed to be in. While software engineers often are actual ones who find and remove any bugs in a software system
Nah - bob from India stole the idea from a real security researcher - then they let this dumb POS get the credit?
No.. power is power!

This is the first time I've seen a news outlet be respectful to someone who spends most of their time in front of a computer, makes a lot of money, and is under the age of 25. Thank you for the good and respectful interview.
Reporter: Do you get excited by money?
No i get excited by being broke.
The less money you have, the more potential you have at least.
Unless you’re in a relationship or in debt.

The people can't understand how good person is this guy. He can earns a lot of money selling this bug's to bad companies and is not doing. I hope someday we can arrive to this etical society. With more people like him.
He thinks long term. He makes great money without risking going to jail. Only stupid ambicious people would prefer the ilegal way.
He should start his own Web Security Company.
No, because there's nothing badass in that. 🤷
Nah, make money off big companies. Hes doing it right.
@@missionpupa he cant do that if he had a company.... right
@@abcwow2400 you clearly dont understand the time it takes to run a company succesfuly. It requires you to wear a lot of hats, youre no longer just a hacker.
Ye he should
He's an Ethical Hacker, not just a "hacker".
what do you mean by "Hacker" ??
i saw that too.
You may call him an security consultant, a bug fixer a keyboard slave, perhaps a sellout if he really was a hacker at some point, but defnintly not a hacker at this point. Also Ethical Hacker is an oxymoron, just read about the original texts and how they saw themselves before corporate media found a new white knight to market for their films. I may not know what a real hacker is, but i definetly know that this wasn't one. Hacker's after the definitions i read and would claim to be the origins are curious minds who believe that information in itself is free and can not be owned. Gaining access due to technical means is part of that. They were not out to harm or destroy anything or anyone, but wouldn't be held back from finding out how things are working or what information would be accessible. If knowing is power, then not knowing is keeping us docile at the feet of anyone wanting to oppress. As a citizen it should be our duty to learn as much as we can, so we can make informed decision, right?
@@codejunkes4607 The word "Hacker" has negative connotations, so people incorrectly assume hackers are bad people. This guy is a White Hat, obviously. On the other hand, Black Hats are malicious hackers who have cruel intentions.
@@joshuaamberson5266 That's people's fault but it was never meant to be created negatively ... just a we don't say Ethical Scientist ... there are scientist who did bad things too
Millionaire and he rides around in a Peugeot.
Smart Millionaire.
@@fatherandson3432 It is smart but c'mon he should treat himself.
Father and Son shit millionaire
@@dannystevens2900 that's his choice this is why a lot of average or broke people stay broke is because of consumerism and the idea of treating yourself after that fat paycheck you get. Start saving and spend wisely you dont have to buy cars for 50k or more just because you are a millionaire
You should know the difference between a liability and an asset. Ever heard of depreciation??
Also the Peugeot is a decent car.

That's simply amazing. He found his true talent and skill and thus became very successful. Imagine if his parents forced him to be a nurse or something else.. Glad it doesn't seem that way.

@@Alexnikpo yep these morons don't have any money managing skills.
Im so jealous because this is my dream to become an hacker, I always think of that since high school. But it changed because for me its complicated (Im not a genius person and Im a slow thinker). Good for him he is using his talent to find bugs or help a company to secure their vulnerable security.
Now I remember Jonathan James RIP to him
It’s not too late. If you practice with consistency you’ll become one. Have patience and achieve your target 👍
He probably creates the bug then finds it 😂
"I like being your normal guy" you know, just your normal teenage looking millionaire hacker.

Smart kid though...
Hackers are geniuses- it’s a smart weapon
internet job is just unfair job.

he is a white hatter
And he's really honest when talking about money 👍🏻
It’s crazy how much money goes around in this industry
When you hack like he does, it’s awesome.. when you hack to invade someone else’s privacy though... it makes you a loser.
You have to understand that it’s not magic. The best way to make lucrative trades is working with an expert.
Recommend any?
Grafton, I have followed the exact same trades as you pointed out and This has been a huge advantage for me as a new trader.
As I learn more about the trading online, I’ve realized that Grafton’s methods combined with his knowledge has been the reason I’ve been able to hit the jackpot in trading.
However, I have profitably used your signals. For me Grafton, this has always been a safer option for me.
Trading is the easiest way to make easy money, I get to trade from my desk, be my own boss and enjoy monetary rewards, but it wasn’t fun getting here - believe me but I still owe it all to Grafton.

Learning this kind of information is easier said than done. Not everyone has the brain to absorb that kind of information. We are not all made for this otherwise many would be doing it.
Thats very true. But if a person is willing to invest their spare time into learning. Maybe go to a community college to get a bit of a boost, there is nothing they cant achieve.
@@benzo-diazepine To an extent yes. Most people are capable of amazing feats with enough learning and discipline. Until they run up against memory, associative, intellectual, or other limits. This is why you have an Einstein on one end and a mentally deficient person at the other. But I agree and think a lot of people give up early when they are capable of much more.
@@benzo-diazepine um no, not even. hacking out of any job is something that you cant just learn at a college. I had been doing the same thing he does for almost 6 years now, I have more than 100 valid reports, 5 of those reports are for the US federal alone. This year I started looking for a job on this, and no one will pick me, do you know why? because many think a piece a paper is what make people like him or me hackers. No, hacking is an art and once you have it, you can only master it more. to be able to get a job, I had to pay 2 thousand dollars to a company that is not teaching me anything. I do more of everything I was given to learn. why? because that certification will tell companies Im hacker. This kind of things happens because those in the field have little to no knowlaged on the subject because if you look at the top 10 hackers on this world none of them went to school for it. yeah, school will teach you a lot and will help you too, but this is something you will get good at in only 1 or 2 years. you will need more than that only to become regular. I myself even with all my years I don't think as myself as a good hacker or even a hacker.
