IHTFP Hack Gallery: Hack Ethics: "The 'Hacker Ethic'

Over many years at MIT, a 'code of ethics' has evolved. This informal code is a self-enforced attitude that ensures that hacks will continue to be amusing and well-received both within and without MIT.

According to the 'hacker ethic,' a hack must:

+ be safe
+ not damage anything
+ not damage anyone, either physically, mentally or emotionally
+ be funny, at least to most of the people who experience it

There is no way of enforcing this code, but anything that directly contradicts it will probably not be considered a 'hack' by most of the MIT community. "
