It's nothing more than the self-justification and whining of a hacker in res who doesn't want to be found out and reported. Let me say this: Each and every time some idiot scans me, I report them. Always. (Just the same as if someone had twisted the doorknobs to my home.) No-one scans or twists doorknobs to do anyone a favor, they're looking for an opportunity... )As for the B.S. that it might be a 'research project'? Really?!? If Egoslayer1 stopped smoking the green long enough to see the sun, he'd know how utterly unbelievable that sounded. )Finally- I report ALL scans to the respective ISPs because of the potential of damage to someone else's sys.
