You don't know what circumstances the other party, the spammer, is under in this situation. On one end, maybe they just don't care, which is certainly their choice. Maybe this is the difference between eating tonight or not, or feeding their family. We may think it's immoral, but those are in the light of our own circumstances.
- zaroth 4y agoThis is way beyond moral relativism and even ends justify the means type thinking… It makes no sense to equivocate over the bad things people do by asking everyone to assume the perp had a figurative gun to their head. What this dev did was absolutely immoral. Trashing a commons in an attempt to scam end users is objectively wrong. Seems very strange to chastise OP for pointing this out based on a wild theory that the dev literally had no other choice.
