Is a funny sentence to have to say. Is unauthorized use also unauthorized?
- turbonaut 2y agoAuthorization and forbidding are both explicit actions. Unauthorized refers to the absence of authorisation. ‘Unauthorized use is forbidden’ means ‘all use must have explicit permission.’ Clearly it is a bit disingenuous as it usually means ‘all use I don’t like / is not inline with norms’.
