“grey hats”

What's a grey hat?

Black hats are typical hackers, white hats are ethical hackers. So grey hats are just morally ambiguous hackers

Typical hackers

Screw that, go check the original definition of hacker. Those who do bad business with computers are "black hats" not "typical hackers"

Of course you're right, historically. But since the word hacker came to mean both good and bad in the general publics mind, this is where we are in 2024. We can't fight it.

And not just in 2024 grey hats and white hats have existed for quite some time now.
