in thread The ethics of humour

demerphq,
abuse of super user powers to change how an individual represents themselves is in my eyes _wrong_

In my cursory tests, I did not find that there was any change in the way users represented themselves to others and is the main reason I commented. I was not disputing your claims of it being un-ethical. I have sat through enough ethics training seminars myself both for the military and for the government to know that a myriad of things I would never consider un-ethical are.

After discovering that this was just by chance, I did not want to delete my reply, so I updated it.

    With good enough seminars everything is un-ethical.
