"Hacking" in the true sense, is circumventing the design of something like software or device then experimenting and trying to understand its workings. The term used here should be *cheating*. Plain and simple. Trying to rationalise it is pointless. It's like stealing some kid's lunch money or robbing a 7-11, in the end, it's all the same.
