Why would you want to ssh into a machine that's not yours? That's a violation of the Computer Frauds and Abuse Act, up to 10 years in prison!

I think you're joking, but to clarify -- not personally yours. A misbehaving worker box, an app server in the staging environment, etc. A resource owned by the organization for which you work, where it would not be appropriate for you to customize it to your own liking
When you have permission to do so, it isn’t.
