There are three forms of hacker. There is White Hat Hacker, a Black Hat Hacker and a grey hat hacker.
A white hat hacker will often be someone who is working for a company to find exploits and security issues with the companies system. Any security issues will be passed on by the hacker to the person responsible for managing the system. A white hat hacker can also be someone who is hacking just for fun and a challenge without causing any damage or doing any malicious acts. They may even contact the person they have hacked to tell them about these security issues they have found.
A black hat hacker is almost definatly a person who is hacking with further intent of criminal acts. They will deface websites, steal data and perform many other malicious activities involving the data and information they have received via hacking.
A grey hat hacker is generally someone who performs a bit of both. They ofter do not perform extremely bad acts and may just deface a website rather than steal data and information such as credit card details, etc.
The motive behind hacking can often be more mischievous than sinister. For example: Someone may hack just to prove that they can.

Get the hacker mug.This phrase comes from Hebrew, and its meaning is something extraordinarily good. If we need to go through a way in order to get somewhere, the end of this way would be the place we want to get to or a condition we desire to be in -- and this place or condition is of course valuable for us.
Hence, "the end of the way" is something REALLY good.
