Answer 1

Hacker culture:

HAcker culture is simply the culture of taking advantages of limitation of software or a system. There are various types of hackers names as white hat hacker, black hat hacker and grey hat hacker.

Generally, hacker culture is related to illegal activities. Black hat hackers used to steal the information from a system or harm the system for their personal benifits. But in some cases, hacker culture is benificial too when we talked about white hat hackers, as they work for government agencies to minimise the unethical actvities.

Media effect:

Meda shows the hacker culture news or unethical activity cases in order to warn people. We are generally heard about the news related to hacking in daily life. This is to aware people, but some students or teenagers get negatively effected. They try to start learning hacking and then they go for illegal activities. Hence, media aware people about the unethical activities, as well as media motivates the hacking culture too.
