A greyhat with malicious intent is just a blackhat.

Not really, because it depends on who the target is. If the greyhat for example maliciously targets a Mexican cartel or Iranian nuclear centrifuge, are they really the bad guy?
Which in turn depends on how many innocent bystanders get killed, maimed or injured as a result of those actions and if the means justify the end...
It’s a very grey area. If we knew the answers with certainty there would only be black and white.
