I don't think there's an official guide to lay people's adoption of computer slang, but I believe there's a fairly common understanding of "hack" that must involve a person intentionally attempting to access a secured "area" (database, site, application, what have you.) Typing in a URL that is in a public environment but not advertised to the general public is not a hack.


This is no way refutes the current standing argument of "Who gives a frick?"

except it has evolved into much more than that. Hack is used quite routinely as a workaround with tech. Hell even more than that, you hear quite regularly with everyday stuff, ie "life hacks" etc..
