I did some cracking as a kid. I had back doors to our entire academic computing system in college. A couple of us did and we shared each other's work and added to it. This is the same as kids who, before the computer era, would tinker around with locks to figure out how they work. We knew that what we were doing is illegal, BUT, we also knew where the line into immoral was, and we never crossed it. Mess up other people's systems, steal their data, ruin their work, you must be punished.
