Jetee, either you've missed all the things that Anonymous (which is an organized group) has done in the past 2 years or you've been under a rock. There are "white hat" hackers that expose issues in websites and software so that they can be fixed. They don't exploit the holes, and sometimes they're paid for their services. There are actually businesses that do exactly that - look for security holes. Sometimes they're soliticed, sometimes not.
I think that if you're interested, you need to read what's here at TFP as well as what's readily available in the media. This is no small story.
