1. Multiple reasons. It is rarely only one reason for an attack. It usually has to do with money because it could also be a combination of influences from entertainment, revenge, or even boredom. 
2. For money. When you hear about most attacks it has to do with trying to steal money or stealing information to get to your money.
3. Entertainment. Hacking is talked about a lot in entertainment, I feel like attackers get the idea from entertainment and assume it is not that hard or they won’t get caught so they commit the crime. 
4. Political. I chose this one because the political scene is very intense. They will say or do anything to get what they want. 
5. Revenge. This one doesn’t have to do with the attacker wanting anything, this is about the attacker trying to get back at the victim. I chose to put this one here because I feel like you have poor self-control if you get mad enough to commit a crime on the internet. 
6. Boredom. This one is low on my list because I feel like you should never be bored enough to commit a crime but I know if you are bored enough and have some type of influence it could get to that. 

7. Recognition. I put this one last because most of the time it is not to get recognized it is more about hurting someone or gaining something like money or fame.
