In some specific instances, this approach is clever. Taken as a general philosophy, it’s regrettable, harmful, unethical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_of_the_commons

Flipper zero themselves try to present the flipper zero as a device that "hacks things with a button press". And they love the free advertising they get along the same lines by youtubers desperate for clicks. Ultimately it just sells more devices. The flipper zero can't "hack" anything. It can only be used as a tool to perform hacking, by a skilled individual who is doing all the work/discovering an exploit.

Would be pretty rad to see what happens I suppose.

Same goes for other tools. If Mythos can find vulnerabilities (through smarts or just extensive combinatorial testing who knows) what's to say it can't help find physical vulnerabilities as well.

> plus, if you see somebody stealing food, no, you didn't Don't tell me, in your view the cost of shoplifting is begrudgingly covered by those evil rich people who own everything, right? It's not passed down to customers, and therefore affects those who obey rules, and especially those who are in a precarious financial situation to begin with, right?

Don't tell me, you think the store actually expects to sell all that milk before it goes bad?

Yes, I'm sure milk is all people steal. And I'm sure it's better for it to be stolen than given to food banks and charities.

F off

More often than not, they’re aware but let it slide because they pity you

Yeah, that's the social engineering part. It's a hacker trick. "Cmaan, I'm a little guy I'm a little birthday boy" https://x.com/eshear/status/1941696051884458278?s=20

this behavior reeks of extreme levels of being a spiritually Israeli

I use a similar trick with most software. Instead of buying the online one, I get it on The Pirate Bay. These days even open source software you can simply just apply Claude and get a different version. People online will kick up a fuss about GPL and shit but in real life no one bothers. Shoplift. Close an OSS project. Who cares. Sometimes I even ride without a ticket. In Europe/Asia especially if you act like cluele…

You are israeli, aren't you ???
