People just love to hack into to computers and know information that they shouldn't know.
There for its was against the law and people knew that it was against the law but some people still did it and no one could do anything about it due to the fact that in (1990) there was no legislation in place to tackle the curse made by hacking.

Data Protection Act
The
Data protection Act controls how your personal information is used by
organisations, businesses or the government. Also Data Protection Act has rules
and regulations that people must follow.
For
example:
A business or
an organisation does not have the rights to give
your details out without your permission, therefore if they
do this they could get fined and also it will be a threat towards
the business.
Personal data: in order for data to be personal data it needs to be able to identify a living individual.
For example a persons first name by it self would not be enough to identify them, but with their full name address would. A main example of personal data is a persons name, address and date of birth.

How to stay safe on the
Internet.
Social networking
websites and apps, such as Facebook, Myspace, Instagram, Viber, Tumblr, Snap
Chat, Ask.fm and Twitter have become incredibly popular in recent years. To
avoid people knowing your personal information
on social network is not to put it on there but if you do that
then never ever add people or accept people as friends that you
do not know.
An example of
this: A young person tries to let their friends know about their birthday
party by posting the information about when and where on their social
networking site. This means hundreds of people end up knowing about the party
and turn up uninvited. The party could turn into chaos with people getting
angry and even refusing to leave. The police would have to get involved to turn
people away
