Wasnt it a security researcher and not a hacker?

"Hacker" doesn't always imply one acting with malicious intent.

If the 90s taught me anything, it's that hacking is done exclusively on monochrome green monitors, with dos. Except once they hack in, the monitor is full color, and somehow has access to every video camera on the planet. With the ability to enhsnce resolution seemingly to magical levels where you can see a clear reflection in someones pupil.
