Could you please explain in some detail how something that is both 
unethical, at least under all professional computing "codes of conduct" 
and/or "ethical codes" I know of and under the personal ethics of most 
"security professionals" (altering the contents of a computer one does 
not have suitable authority to alter in that way), and illegal in most 
countries ("computer [data] tampering" or similar) is a "good idea"?
