| I had a quick interaction with Lon on TC about the situation. To me is sounds like "Sam" is doing this for personal gain. It feels like promoting, marketing. Because in all the posts about this, referrals are thrown to his business and his brothers. Which to me is wrong in the first place, as it was about the card not their damn business. Secondly, it was theft wasn't it? The card wasn't his, it was a good that was lend to him. In this case not only him but severals others as well. It was lend in a leap of faith, no matter it was an experiment or it wasn't. It wasn't lend to be stolen from.
If everyone steals something they lend, the world would be an even shittier place. Because if that was the case, I am going to try and borrow a car. So it was illegal in the first place.
Second place he used script to monitor the card and its movements. Which is illegal unless he had a wiretap approved.
Third, he was not the owner so he committed theft.
Fourth, if it was for charity - USE YOUR OWN GODDAMN POCKETS! You sold a business in the past to Facebook, you have more then enough to go buy. Or am I seeing this all wrong? Could be, as I am far too young to maybe see the greater good. |
Not stating my position on this entire debate with this comment; but, to be fair, he was simply monitoring an API that Jonathan himself provided to see the balance, so there was no wiretapping or illegal card accessing to determine balance going on.
