People who deride "moto speak" probably never knew anyone who's been boned by the Batwings.

I know at least four people who've been visited by Count Dracula to date. They got their peepees slapped rather thoroughly.

I won't be one of them. Even if I learn something that's not for public consumption, I won't use that information for anything but the satisfaction of learning something new. If I had a magic feature generator for any kind of radio, I wouldn't use it to upgrade a radio that wasn't my own personal property and wouldn't sell that radio with the upgrade in it. I love to learn secrets but the profit potential involved
in turning the FEG inside out and selling low-cost upgrades to everyone does not in any way, shape,
or form outweigh the potential costs and penalties.

Arguably, all such hacking activities for your own personal non-financial satisfaction are legal per
"fair use" laws, but when you use it to make money or start handing out the results to other people,
you're heading in a dangerous direction.
