Like, it's not even that much work!

And any piece of writing will be better for it if the heavily stereotyped, nebulous, unclear, "hacker" / "hack" terms are replaced by more specific, clearer alternatives.

For example, framing a story not as "hackers hacked <Some Service>", but as "<Some Service> got compromised" removes the "evil hackers" as the implied explanation of why the compromise happened. Making it easier to talk about potential failures on part of <Some Service>'s operator.
