Seriously, it's not just teens either, it's many college students too. In general, anyone who didn't have to buy their own stuff has a bit less respect for it, and while that doesn't describe all teens or college students, it describes a huge number of them; a rich target pool.

I remember in the early days of exploitative XDCC botting, practically all of the most exploited ip ranges were scholastic; new devices each semester, often given to teens as a present.
