Could UN/US selectively legalize hacking as a punishment for countries?

Question

Could it be possible or practical to legalize and provide extradition protection for hacking countries that break civil liberties laws and specifically hacks that undermine the laws being broken and don't put civilians in harms way?

That's interesting. I don't know that they will give ordinary people free reign like that. It could interfere with the government hacking operations.The idea of cyber privateers is interesting. I would guess some companies are contracted in this capacity.
