Well, breaking or bending laws for any reason isn't "ethically questionable", it is clearly unethical. What it isn't is necessarily wrong, nor is it necessarily immoral, nor bad for society.
Especially when we live in a world that is over-regulated and ungovernable and is led by record-settingly amoral and unethical "leaders". And this is true at local, state, federal government levels. But is also true of many large corporations which control more and more of our daily life.
Asking permission is not an effective strategy in these cases. Do what is right. And be brazzen. Show people how to take back their freedom. Screw the DCMA and hack your roomba, etc.!
Sadly to assume that morality and legality or ethics are tightly linked is becoming less and less often true. If the system wasn't broken they would be.
