Hey guys, Let's put all lock-pickers into jail ! They do not use the key to open a door .... Too bad for you if you lost you key. Just buy another house ! And No, I do not condone stealing someone's code. But did you ever bump against a device you wanted to interface with, but the suppliers company would not give you the protocol ? A sneak-peek into someone else's code could clarify a lot ... Not all reasons to look at something that is guarded against such a event are malicious or criminal. Maybe it is just curiosity to know _how_. I myself want to know how a hand-granade works, and a A-Bomb. I would not think about ever building one, but the way-it-works intrigues me ...
