What's your limits in Black Hat?

[YoungGuns]

What do you set your limits to and say "that's too unethical?" I am all for some Black Hat methods, but some I just think are too low down.

I personally don't like ppi because I hate slow computers and the ones like zango steal your commissions

So, what do you see as unethical? (or too unethical to do)
I have started to get into something that you could definitely consider to be cpa fraud, and I am just having some thoughts about it.

lol cpa fraud is a lot worse than ppi

Yea, I guess so, but I just really hate ppi. I just get really angry when my computer gets that kind of stuff on it lol

The only thing I do that is kinda black hat is violate TOS for many websites a lot. But I never do any cpa fraud. I also promote very misleading movie/music download sites, but they offer refunds. I also use a lot of bots. I don't fuck anyone over really.

My limit would be going to the actual CPA headquarter and holding up the place... I'd much rather do it over the net.

Goes the same for e-whoring...

Kidnapping and murder? =o =p

 

[nudebrain]

promoting violent porn? well... there is actually a sneaky way to promote unpleasant porn keywords, without using any of the violent or abusive porn itself and then rather using the bad conscience of people... - I call it the "abusive porn keyword conscience guide", which I am going to sell for $10 soon, anyone interested message me!

Whats a limit?

 

[Belexandor]

About the most disgusting thing I've seen personally are the people scamming others in the name of sick or hungry children. I could never do shit like that.

I have no problem at all using pervs for money though. As long as I don't actually have to chat with them.

 

[stealthisblog]

as long as no one dies im cool with whatever im doing.

 

[YoungGuns]

Whats a limit?

lol like frauding people/companies, stuff that harms other people/companies in some way

What would you NOT do that's blackhat?

 

[cparainmaker]

He was being sarcastic retard....but my limit would have to be just taking some ones money on a forum, something like that...as far as bh marketing no limits

 

[YoungGuns]

He was being sarcastic retard

I know he was...but I just wanted to expand on what I was asking.

We exploit, and to me there is a limit, but to others there is not. Taking advantage of a person's ignorance/stupidity is not something I like to do, taking advantage of a business is another matter.
All big businesses, online and off, as well as politicians, use exploitation to get what they want, targeting the mindless sheep. Scammers operate the same way. I'll exploit the exploiters. It doesn't make me right, but it makes me happy.

I dunno; some people absolutley desrve to die, not that I would aid them on their way but think about guys like Idi Amin!

If someone had just gone off and shot that fucker, a few hundred thousand people would be alive today.

Death has its place!

That's true of many politicians...
The only reason many people are alive is because it's illegal to kill them.

Indeed, and in a sense i think that is justified. Two wrongs don't make a right, but the old testament says an eye for an eye, so it's just an equal and opposite reaction to those that exploit. I have no moral qualms duping the average pinhead consumer(given it doesn't involve financial destruction), but I get personal enjoyment by stiffing corps, advertisers, networks, etc.

im all down for blackhat methods, and downloading stuff, using software and other things, but i draw the line at stuff like sending fake traffic/hits/clicks or other similar things. its kinda dishonest..

dealing with child porn....That's gross!

Other than that, it's free game.
