This is a Bad Idea, because you have no way of knowing whether the devices you are "counter-hacking" are simple IoT devices or if they perform a critical function of some sort. The last thing you want to do is accidentally take offline/brick an Internet-connected medical device or computer at a hospital ER room, for instance, since it might literally result in someone's death.
