A simple observation:

"White Hat Hacker" is NOT synonymous with "Ethical Hacker"

You can legally protect an unethical corporation and in doing so, you are an accomplice to their unethical actions.

You can ethically hack to protect people and still be conducting illegal activities.

Do not conflate the two terms.

@tinker I prefer the terms "red team" for attackers, and "blue team" for defenders. I guess ethical stance doesn't quite fit there, but we know their relative role.
