I cracked one off while riding the RK this morning. Does that count? Or maybe I should add that to the "What did you do to your Bagger today?" thread...

 

The way I see it, what the OP is doing is no different than what the PV, TTS, etc. are doing.

 

HAHAHA!!!

Come on.....

No different than a PV or any other "product" that is circumventing the OEM electronics and proprietary programming.

Hacking / hackers are not all identity thieves and don't all plant viruses, those are still called thieves and crooks - hackers usually just "hack" away at schitt trying to figure out how to change functionality or get something to work. They "hack" because they have no formal training in the matter and that is where the term originated from back in the late 70's. There is your history lesson for the day.

 

Ethical hacking. What the OP was doing was interesting and NOT wrong. But hey.....I'm a geek also.

 

Crap and all this time I thought a Cracker was white person from Georgia. I stand corrected or ride corrected. Hell I just can't hack it anymore.

 

The bottom line is that if you have a problem with a Moderator or there has been a misunderstanding then you need to send him a pm instead of calling him out on the open forum. We'll learn your "new" language when you learn Forum decorum!
