hmmm hackers are the good guys, you mean cybercriminals, criminals
and other rats..
Most of the software you use is been secure and tested by hackers
for your protection, same as most research on vulnerabilities
that get reported to companies and even the browser you are
using is most likely created and tested, secured by hackers

the rats that steal old peoples CC's and such are not hackers
but are rat criminals or part of a criminal organization
using techniques and knowladge to commit crimes.

Hackers can be helpful when they are ethical hackers, also known as white-hat >hackers, who work to identify and fix security vulnerabilities in systems to >protect against malicious attacks. They use their skills to enhance cybersecurity
for organizations and individuals.

The Role of Ethical Hackers
What Are Ethical Hackers?
Ethical hackers, also known as white-hat hackers, are cybersecurity >professionals who use their skills to help organizations identify and fix >security vulnerabilities. Unlike malicious hackers, they operate with permission
and aim to enhance security rather than exploit weaknesses.
Benefits of Ethical Hacking
Ethical hackers provide several key benefits to organizations:
Vulnerability Identification: They assess systems for weaknesses that could be
exploited by malicious actors.
Security Enhancement: By fixing identified vulnerabilities, they help
strengthen the overall security posture of an organization.
Compliance Support: They assist organizations in meeting data security
regulations, such as HIPAA and GDPR.
Types of Hackers
Hackers can be categorized based on their intentions and methods:
Type Description
White-hat Ethical hackers who help organizations secure their systems. >Black-hat Malicious hackers who exploit vulnerabilities for personal gain.
Gray-hat Hackers who may violate laws but do not have malicious intent.
Script kiddies Inexperienced hackers who use existing tools to explore systems.
Suicide hackers Hackers associated with terrorist or vigilante groups. >Conclusion
Ethical hackers play a crucial role in cybersecurity by proactively identifying
and addressing vulnerabilities. Their work is essential for protecting sensitive
information and maintaining the integrity of systems against potential cyber >threats.

i've been using duckduckgo's a.i.-enhanced search assist (safe search: off)
in tor browser routinely every day ... i find a.i.-assist for the most part helpful, although results tend to be completely dominated by the mainstream narrative, regardless of subject or topic of research ... it's their planet, where the "good guy/bad guy" is universal upon the earth, it's human nature, the human condition, so they invent and propagate idealism e.g. "we went to
the moon", "jesus saves", as if it were corporeal, they are terrene sapiens that can't seem to change ... hence caricatures, and comic book superheroes:

"Hackers" in the tech sense simply means to *anyone* who breaks into
computers or software code,

"A hacker breaks into computer systems. There are hackers
who exploit weak security for malicious intent, and ethical
hackers who help find vulnerabilities."

but there are two main sub-groups - "Black Hat Hackers" (the criminals)
and "White Hat Hackers" (the ones who find and report bugs / security
holes), named after the traditional hat colours of the bad and good
guys in old cowboy movies.

Hello, good day, I already know your definition and what you pasted, those are mainstraim and wrong popular belief because of bad media and silly movies. Stallman and many Linux hackers do not break into systems and are hackers.
The white/black hat is a militarized term, and ethical hacking was a way
for corporate america to say we hired a hacker with out having to
have people rolling their eyes... did you even read the site I linked?
It explains it way better than I can, that org is financed by
many 50-60+ years olds, (like myself) old school hackers and collectives
that now all work for the same people who calls us ethical hackers and
white hats, and yes, now **we** are the ones that roll our eyes when someone says that...

At the end if you going to define something I will go to the roots
and the people in that culture and personality and not what
mass media, movies and academia as a result, say but that is just me, of course
anyone is free to say whatever, I just get concerned when
people includes me and my peers in a phrase that in reality points to criminals
because none of the hackers I know are criminals.

Have a good weekend.

Happy Hacking

In the 1800s in California, some bad guys robbed a town bank there.
A posse was gathered and they went after the crooks. They tracked them
down near two mountains. During the gun fight, the sheriff was killed
and one of the crooks was killed. One of the two mountains was then
named White Hat Mountain after the sheriff and the other was named
Black Hat Mountain after the slain crook.
True story.
