The Google Hacking Database (GHDB) is a compiled list of common mistakes web/server admins make, which can be easily searched by using Google. As a result, you can find things like administrator consoles, password files, credit card numbers, unprotected webcams, etc.
I think your question is not infosec based, but anyway. In your queries, you can use 'AND' and 'OR' operands via their symbols '&' and '|'. There are further information about operands and other information about Google dork here. Also, you can see example queries with Google Hacking Database (GHDB) in expoit-db here.
The list contains every wordlist, dictionary, and password database leak that I could find on the internet (and I spent a LOT of time looking). It also contains every word in the Wikipedia databases (pages-articles, retrieved 2010, all languages) as well as lots of books from Project Gutenberg.
Some database contributers submit their data on condition of anonymity. It may be possible to find statistics on certain classes of website who are legally required to report exposure of personal information. However even among those who are legally obligated to report, some may be unaware of the law and some may choose not to report anyway.
Google doesn't have our passwords saved on their database. Instead they put our password when typed on browser, through an algorithm and it'll produce a unique identifier. This identifier goes to database. And it is unable to reverse engineer/decode the password from the identifier. Is this correct? Is Google's database unhackable and un-decodable?
That includes Google hacking, crafting UDP datagrams, etc. So, to answer your question, the line between illegal hacking and authorized access is basically: did the affected organization mandate or authorize you to access any of its data (e.g. via a Bug Bounty program or a penetration testing service)?
A while ago a very MASSIVE database was leaked that contained the personal information of millions of people. Unfortunately, I'd peg my chances of being in that database at about 80-90%. This means that floating around on the dark web, their could be enough information for a kid to open a credit card in my name and wreak havoc on my life.
The use of paid API is increasingly rising each year. For example, IBM, Google and Microsoft are providing paid API such as Text to Speech, Speech to Text and Image to Text and vice versa. I have a question about what happens If I build an app and publish it:
A hacker with access to the UPS tracking database can make bogus sales online, using PayPal to take payment. They then watch the UPS system for another package matching the date and delivery area or town, copy that number and send it to Paypal for their bogus sale.
Credential Spraying (distributed brute force): try the same password on multiple accounts or multiple systems (or variations on this theme). No one account is getting focus, so the attack on each account goes under the radar. Offline Brute Force: use a weakness in the system to extract the password database that contains the (hopefully) hashed ...
