Since when did stealing become 'spending social capital'?

Its this type of perspective that encourages our community to condone activities that we would frown upon in other circumstances.

"Did I gain more than I lost?" isn't the type of hacker we should be striving to be.

After they took people's contact info without asking, they had to make it up to their customers. They deleted the info immediately, updated the app, and issued a sincere apology. This is the opposite of "condoning" their actions.
