I've always seen a strong analogue between systems hacking/infiltration and this kind of legal behavior. In both cases people who specialize in the arcane rules of each system (unix or specialized law) use this arcane knowledge to blatantly break the intent of the system rules without breaking the letter. The only difference is that law hacking is totally legal. As Vito Corleone once said, "A lawyer with his briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns."
