While I do appreciate your honesty (re: downvote), gaining access to my information isn't intrinsically hacking[1]. Hacking might be the means of gaining the information. In this case, hacking did take place, but not the hacking of 21 million Americans, rather on some government servers. I've added citation to my original comment.
Anyway, it doesn't matter because the OP was flagged into oblivion.
