It's not just reacting to what your scout see or don't see, but reacting without any sort of information.

Meatex, I will watch the replay when I'm back home tonight.

I disagree, I sometimes respond to things that I don't see coming simply for the fact that there is a potential that it is coming. Isn't that what being a safe player is all about? Maybe this accused player just likes being safe on 4 cannons and not dying to Roach rushes. You don't know that. Does me making cannons at my mineral lines after a roach push to prepare for a muta switch make me a hacker? He could easily be continueing massing roaches or going another tech, I cannon up because without so a muta switch would end the game, this is simply playing safe. It would be nice with perfect information, but without it I can only make guesses on imperfect information WHICH WILL KEEP ME ALIVE. I recall MC blindly making 3 cannons and a Stargate to defend Idras Hatch cancel all ins in a particular MLG. Does this make MC a hacker? Or does MC see something we don't see or perhaps simply being safe?

What constitutes as "information" varies from person to person. People may gather information from various places/experience. Therefore some people may not be as playing blindly as you think because of their indept knowledge at what might happen at certain times. I remember a period where I never scouted in PvT because I had a build that universally stopped everything.
