I doubt his intent was purely good samaritan - he left a back door. Also, to continue the earler guys's analogy, you don't fix your neighbor's garage by installing your own security system without telling him - you notify him of the problem.
This guy was a hacker, he got caught, and now has to pay the price. He knew the risk, he decided to take it, and he got caught.
