The word "found" is different from the word "feel"; I'm not sure why you involved feelings at all: Bluetouff was sentenced because he admitted he had seen evidence the documents were supposed to be restricted but chose to publish parts of them anyway.

If you go into someones garden an copy their work, it does make a big difference if you admit to seeing the sign saying "private property, keep out".

Because in other circumstances, a hacker might have decided to stop there, and not only not publish, but instead warn the website about their security flaw.

Especially after Bluetouff was found guilty.

In fact, I expect this to have happened many times, but "hacker did the right thing" is much less likely to make headlines.

Meanwhile, agent swarms seem to be (mostly ?) incapable of having this kind of moral compass, at least for now. (And OpenAI isn't doing much better, cough.)
