Many of the news-related communities I’m in have rules saying the title must much the headline. I’m not about to go memorizing which community has which rules so I can edit headlines on some posts in some communities because the wording might trigger the occasional pedant.
Edit: and honestly, an attack would be a form of hacking. Gaining unauthorized access is not the be-all end-all of hacking. Granted, I would admit this is likely meant to garner clicks, but I would also argue it’s technically true.

I could, but I don’t think they’re going to edit your post. They’re responsible for their headline, you are responsible for yours.

Dude, the common practice is to use the exactly same title as the headline of the article.
A lot of communities even have rules specifically saying you have to use the same title as the article, too.
