Here is the simple truth, there is no underlying outlook,
background, dogma or set of ethics that define hacking. The only theme
that applies across the board is breaking computer security.

And there's still a few hold-outs that don't agree with *that* theme either,
because "hacking" had a different meaning back in the Elder Days.

Of course, English is a living language, and terms like "hacker" and "0-day"
get redefined, despite our best efforts at preventing it.
