Nah I never really was interested in hacking websites. (I do hack video games though. xD) Ethical hacking is fine in my book though. I think it's fine to let people know if their site isn't that secure, especially if it handles personal information. This will hopefully get the webmaster's attention to try and fix the problems that their site has.
god no, I kind of wish I could just for the general knowledge to make other program related things.
So you can remove websites and make them disappear?
If you talk about its content removed yeah but usually hosting services include backup so it's like not really big thing to worry about nowadays.
Do you use any programs that are easy to use? Programs that hack and delete the site itself?
No, most of them are useless if you don't know how to do it, you see there are lots of things you can do, from just taking the site down to steal passwords and credit cards numbers. There are lots of sites that offer you courses to learn how to hack sites.. but as i said before most of this is used to test its security and to improve.
I messed around with some SQL injection a bit as a teen when trying to teach myself PHP & SQL. I only ever got it to work on test sites I set up myself that purposely didn't escape strings, and never encountered any sites in the wild that were vulnerable. Though, a lot of vulnerabilities only pop up in very specific circumstances, and I definitely wasn't trying anything more exotic than just inputting SQL to login forms
