In this context, I don't think it is important at all, if BtB
had used the phrase "compromised" instead, this discussion would never 
have arisen at all.

In fact, to be honest, it really is about time that we all got over 
the distinction, and try to understand implicitly, that one of the 
*many many* connotations of the word "hack" is indeed "compromise
of box by sKidie", even if i'ts just from their POV.

*Human* vocab and grammar are flexible, descriptive, and evolving,
usage creates definition.
