I wanted to say something similar, but I'm not as good with words, and would
probably have been far more agressive about it.

Thank you for saying what I wanted to say, but couldn't find the words for.

What I meant was let's use the term "criminals" for people
who gain control of a system without authorization or who
obtain information they should not have from a system,
whether by computer engineering or social engineering.

Why? Because that's what they are.

We're never ever going to get J Random Fauxnewsviewer to
grok the difference between hackers, white-hat crackers and
black-hat crackers. Especially since the mass media cannot
be bothered to distinguish among them.
