Journal 5

For my ranking of the individual motives of cyber offending, I would place multiple reasons at rank 1. This because people could also have important circumstances that doesn’t involve the other 6, like medical gains. Rank 2 would be money, mainly because it is the universal need for everyone. It can get people all their wants and desires. The next rank would be political motive because it can get a large audience to consider someone’s views. For rank 4 it would be entertainment. This rank primarily comes from the thinking that everyone like to have fun, and this could be considered very entertaining for some. The thought of getting back at someone that did something wrong to you is why I would put revenge at rank 5. I would put recognition at rank 6 because some people like to be praise for what they do. Boredom would be rank 7 because I don’t think it’s a good excuse to be committing cybercrime.
