Wrong.

By using any tool to browse someone else's hard drive without their explicit 
permission, you have committed trespass and breached their privacy, in 
exactly the same way that walking into a person's unlocked house and rooting 
through their dresser drawers without an invitation constitutes trespass and 
invasion of privacy, regardless of whether you take or damage anything or 
not.
