how do you know they are unable to obtain such things?
also, how do you think hackers are trained? by teaching them how to create a ToDo app with the nightly build of React?
they probably know by heart the ethernet and TCP/IP stack better than the guys who created them and could recite it backwards, and that's already enough to hack plenty of things
