Comments: | Probably best not to try and pin it down. The Webisphere is full of definitions of the English term, and we can be sure the Japanese doesn't align precisely with all of them. GG5 says it's a person. |

Comments: | doesn't it? https://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/cracker (2) A person who reverse engineers software and modifies it for fun. The term often applies to game software. See disassembler. I don't think we should provide full definitions for terms like this one. I think "(software) cracker" or just "cracker" with the comp tag is enough. We don't specify on sense 1 that it's an edible cracker as opposed to a braggart etc. (the definition that leads in some ei-ei dictionarie) |

Comments: | Tightening the meaning. It doesn't involve cracking the software. |
