I think the problem is, if you put a sign saying "Feel free to break in, I dare you, if you manage to get in the house then you're free to take anything you want!" then you can't later complain when someone does exactly that.
(Well, maybe you can still complain, IANAL, but it gets a lot murkier.)
- rootusrootus 4y agoThat might be useful in a civil case, but I don't see how it would apply to a criminal case. "If you do X, it is not considered fraud" isn't going to legally bind the criminal justice system in any way.
- IanCal 4y agoThis comes down to the intent, doesn't it? It would be different if you had no sign but on the door that opened if someone pushed it because it was badly designed. People on HN argue this with openly accessible APIs fairly regularly "ah but the machine let me do it, they must be OK with it" and I think that goes down badly in court.
