Actually home invasion is an "exploit" of the home security (i.e. locked doors / windows).
Just because they do it from behind a screen doesn't make it a less culpable crime. Computers don't insulate you from ethics...
We put locks on our doors to prevent people from entering. They have always been exploitable but we use threat of laws to prevent it. Now we put locks in our software to prevent people from entering it (encryption). Somehow this generation believes that these locks are exempt from decency and law. It's sad that people think exposing vulnerabilities at any cost is righteous. There's plenty of people researching security in responsible ways. These two are not in that camp.
Have fun... it's no different than kicking your neighbors door down and tell him to pay you for exposing his security flaw. Still makes you are jerk.
