“ethical hacker” is not defined as “someone who only hacks in fear of law”. That’s my point. Hackers with ethics do lots of shit. Some of them work within the law, some of them work sideways to the law, but your code of ethics and your legal code aren’t quite the same thing, and you assuming they are is surprising.

I’m pretty sure that’s what’s meant by ‘ethical hacker’ in most cases and that’s why I wanted to point out the difference you are pointing out right now.
