Hacking is only used when there is an actual breach (change and interference) with the actual coding of a program or system. When it's asking you to download an extension and give your information, there is not a breach in the coding, therefore it is not hacking and it is compromising. I'm getting this information from a video that AJ uploaded to their YouTube channel. True.. But still its always easier to say that you got hacked instead of getting crompromised... Also many people don't know what that means and it just makes it more confusing for younger people
