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.

Poland says it too was targeted by Russian hackers
On Friday, Germany and the Czech Republic said they had been targeted by the Russian-controlled Fancy Bear hacking group.Carlo Boffa (POLITICO)
There's a disgraceful ecosystem of public relations & lobbying firms using hackers for hire.
Sometimes they are used to silence critics & advocacy groups.
Like US nonprofits doing climate advocacy.
Our investigation into a group we christened #DarkBasin uncovered a sprawling #India-based hack-for-hire operation.
They enabled US corporations to outsource lawbreaking.

Dark Basin: Uncovering a Massive Hack-For-Hire Operation - The Citizen Lab
Over the course of our multi-year investigation, we found that Dark Basin likely conducted commercial espionage on behalf of their clients against opponents involved in high profile public events, criminal cases, financial transactions, news stories,…John Scott-Railton (The Citizen Lab)
I'd bet my bottom dollar that this "unnamed...PR and lobbying firm" knows exactly who they are...
...and are no doubt experiencing an afternoon of the purest panic.
Using the offshore hack-for-hire ecosystem has been largely consequence-free for the middlemen & the ultimate beneficiaries of stolen information.
The tide may be turning & this latest arrest suggests that more consequences may be inbound.

BREAKING: #Israeli private investigator arrested for cyberespionage on behalf of American PR firm.
Caught by UK under #RedNotice from 🇺🇸US while boarding a flight.
BIG TWIST in a wild case that began w/our @citizenlab investigation into indian hack-for-hire group #belltrox
Sound familiar?
Because Amit Forlit is the *second* PI from #Israel arrested in similar way for this case.
First = convicted.

It's also true that many #hacking tools, platforms, courses etc. could use some help in the #accessibility department. It's a neverending vicious circle.

Another post about #Apple #Powerbook G4 12" events from ~20 years ago.
#Hacking #wifi a late November evening of 2005. With a "larger" antenna and standing on a mountain to the north of the city.
I used an antenna made for point to point "broadband" connections.
A bit on the larger size than the popular "pringles cantennas" people used to make.
(Funny to think about that I ended up with a work in Cybersecurity a few years later)
