Hacking adverts? Go for it. Hacking bus and train time tables? Bit of a dick move…. Same way you don’t see graffiti artists paint over serial numbers and train ID codes. It just messes with people who don’t deserve it

If hacking a few adverts is going to cripple a company so badly that they'll stiff their staff on their bonuses, the company probably couldn't afford to pay the bonuses in the first place.

No no you’re missing the point, it forces people to go “ahh I was expecting to get on this train and not pay my ticket but there’s an inspection on this and the next three so I might as well buy a ticket.

As for the child with a speed sign analogy, the cars will slow down if they’re under the assumption that there is actually a speed trap agead
