You call it thievery, I call it reverse engineering. One is illegal, the other isn't (take a guess which one applies to each option).
Think what you will, but even if you're doing only what you claim... hacking proprietary software for just your own "curiosity"... it's a crime, and you can go to prison.

So good luck with that.
You might want to do you own research on that aspect, I don't have the patience to do it for you. I'm not redistributing or personally using, reverse engineering is a completely legal process. How about we get back on topic.

Actually, I do have one more point to make to completely disprove your argument....
UpRev had to reverse engineer Nissan's kernel in order to create a software to flash. Reverse engineering is an essential part of creating a tuning suite, so if I'm a "thief" then so is UpRev. The difference is I don't consider UpRev a thief, I consider them people who reverse engineered something and then recreated their own version of it. I did half of that.
The moral of this story is your argument is invalid.

blizzard sounda like my kind of people..seymore not so much. I hacked my flir e4 thermal imager because it could be done and was fun...the hack was for entertainment.
