Using marketing tricks to get a job in marketing seems like a full equivalent of a hacking of security services provider to get hired as a security expert. I suppose most HN visitors would assume the former to be ok as long as nobody harmed? Why so many commentators feel upset about the story then?

P.S. Though I do not like an attempt to pose as poor nobodies while they obviously could afford spending money on iPads to give away

We needed only a couple of used old iPads from the marketplaces. It's later that we learned majority of these companies have ''no valuable gifts'' policy where they must return things like these, so we just kept reusing the returned ones.
