and then slowly destroying hypercard

A stack that destroys a software program when it interprets an
action as unsuitable? Now what the word for that...? Starts with
a v I think.

Destroying the stack (or a standalone version) seems defensible, but
I'm not sure there is safe legal ground for destroying a program not
provided by the vendor.

No safe ground at all. And actually, destroying the users data is a legal no-no too, whatever the reason for doing this. If the stack holds data the user entered, and the stack self-destructs on purpose, then the user *can* sue - and yes, there are related precedents. (And such events have sometimes made it into tech news stories, which is certainly not good publicity.)
So please, think very, very carefully before doing this sort of thing.
