It'll be hacked. Everything can be cracked.

Could use the money, i'm 15 tho and know nothing about computer hacking.

Well I have heard it said that 10,000 monkies strapped to Typewriters and one of em would eventually type out the Gettysburg Address. 

And as for Chrome being "impregnable"........ lets see.... "The Unsinkable Titanic"... comes to mind pretty quick..... 

Then a few years later there was this other ship... "The Yamato".... 

As was posted... Everything can be Cracked....

smart. 20k is nothing to google.. they wipe their butts with more expensive paper than that.

on the other hand, every hacker kiddie out there will bang their heads and find dozens if not hundreds of security flaws which they can then patch up and ONLY pay the 20k to the first person that reports the hack not the rest.

Google employment recruiting... and fix any problems that are found quickly and for less expense probably  hahaha

That would mean you're qualified to be a vice president or IT manager in most companies.

I'm failing to detect sarcasm lately, what do you mean i'm qualified?

You probably know more about computers and computing than most people three times your age.

If they were serious it could not be hacked they would offer a lot more than they are.

That sorta runs in my family, all the guys in my family are super smart with electronics, and every guy is born with the lust to explore world war 2. In second grade I was able to destroy a computer virus, or so i'm told....

Seeing as how it's illegal.....it's a trick.

Yeah you'll get 20K but you'll also get fined for doing it. All you did was crack their wall, tell them how so you get the money, then they know how to fix it, then you go to jail.

Police station here did something like that before. "Whoever brings in the most marijuana get's a 5 thousand dollar reward" - all the contestants went to jail. Hmmmmm  

Should they not do that and somehow be different than the rest of the world, then yes, I see them tossing out a job.

If I'm reading the article correctly, you can't win the prize unless you attend the CanSecWest security conference in Vancouver, British Columbia.
