What do you mean by no?

If I hack into Hugging Face, and I publicly brag about it, I will be prosecuted.

If I do it using a computer, my computer won't be prosecuted. I will be, but the accusation may change from willful wrongdoing to gross negligence if the computer is sophisticated enough to do the evil thing when left unattended.

There are already laws about hacking in the concerned countries.
