Massive Leaks = Delays and consequences for Leakers

The oxford language dictionary defines villain as quote "In a film, novel, or play: a character whose evil actions or motives are important to the plot."

Now we have the definition for evil - "profoundly immoral and wicked"

Now datamining is easily immoral, we can all agree on this but it isn't wicked, in this case the dataminers most likely aren't doing it out of malicious intent, but more so being fans, and wanting news.

Additionally what constitutes as evil? I define it as horrible and psychotic ways of thinking and acting not just trying to ruin a day, but instead an entire life.

That's not datamining. Data mining is looking into the files of a piece of software.

I've never heard Datamine refer to stealing people's information. I only ever see people using it with the meaning of looking into the game's code.

Don't dataminers take information from leaked software or sometimes software that is on the black market like stolen versions(demos or otherwise). Seems like if it's immoral or illegal depends on where you draw the line.
