Lamo denies $300,000 database hack
Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus 2003-09-10

"My personal opinion is that there is no such thing as moral or immoral, only acceptable and not acceptable."

Acceptable by whom? by society or by each individual?

I will assume you mean socially acceptable and not socially acceptable, that would make more sense.

Assuming that - What does society accepts? If we look at all kinds of different societies throughout time and today, we will see a common thing - "What you don't want to be done to you - don't do to others". This is the only common rule that I personally could find that describes what was socially acceptable throughout time. I replaced the words "socially acceptable" with "moral", they are the same.
