That cultural description is only true in so far as you believe it.

  Yes. By definition, hackers are not bound by rules others impose on them, and I don't think a person's age necessarily makes any difference to having that mentality. Although age affects people in other ways. As people mature, priorities shift, and this can affect how a person perceives the world or their place in society, and this in turn could affect a person's willingness to push the boundaries. So there's definitely a bias towards people who are younger and have less to lose, but it's not like any hard limits exist.
