>that's not illegal

Unintentionally revealing comment here. Software goons have no concept of professional ethics and will do any terrible thing you pay them to do.



You made 3 claims, all of them easily disproven. When someone else pushed the claim further, immediately disproven. All you have left to your comment is namecalling.


You're being intentionally obtuse and I suspect you understand full well the difference between professionals like accountants, doctors and lawyers (who, yes, on isolated occasions fail to uphold the standards of their profession) and software developers who are not professionals and operate as solo hired guns, absent any widely agreed ethical standards from a community of peers. It's not name-calling, it's a fact of life: If I refuse an instruction from my bosses, I get fired.

I'm going to stop here because this is just an exercise in silly faux ignorance on your part.


Mixing three claims together to assert your "perfection" does not touch the basic fact that "we are human".
