The headline article you quoted was about malware on the Linux kernel development system. I do not recall any such admission ever being made by either Apple or Microsoft about infections on their development systems, and your current quotes refer to a somewhat different situation. I would be very surprised if it has never happened.

Hacker - he/she who ****es me off by illegally and secretively gaining access to private networks and information for no apparent gain other than to act like a total cock.
Or
he/she who gains financial benefit by gaining illegal access to personal information and using said information to fleece hard working people's private funds be it direct or by confidence.

If the government or a private company hires them to hack into their own systems for security testing, who am I to object but when they randomly select credit cards, bank accounts and the like......
