Ethical hackers would hack the emails of both candidates, not publish them, and use the data to out misdeeds on both sides. This is what Wikileaks used to stand for when i supported them in the beginning. I know this hack wasn't posted on wikileaks initially it was posted on Patebin.

This hack was not ethical and was used as a weapon go sway the election for Putin's pet La Pen.

Those people chiming in when information theft is used as weapon for their side are like those guys cheering when their team member trips the opposing team's player.

In the short term you feel good, and might even get slightly ahead, but there are long term negative consequences.
