Hacking gives you super-human powers. You can travel time & space. It is your responsibility to use these powers for good & only good.

The Future of Cyber Security
“R00tz is exposing children to the world of white-hat hacking to make the future of our digital world a bit safer.”
“Leading security researchers from around the world had gathered to teach this generation — and their parents — how to safely deploy the hacker mind-set in today’s increasingly digital world.”
“Maybe if you put a bunch of science and math and technical stuff in a play setting, the kids will accidentally learn something.”
