Aug 16, 2022 at 22:53 comment added sysadmin1138 Mod @hlovdal This is why we don't have that close reason, in spite of me occasionally desiring otherwise. US-centrisim is rife in the tech industry, we don't need to contribute to it.

Jun 21, 2011 at 19:23 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' Why would you close gray hat questions? And no, you're not going to find a definition of ethics. @Robert fridge as a rack definitely deserves a safety warning, at least as a comment if not an edit; there's no reason why it should be deleted.
Jun 20, 2011 at 1:21 comment added Chris S I'd like to see the a small addition to the FAQ under the kind of questions not to ask, bullet 6: "the answer involves circumventing licensing, corporate/network policy, or applicable laws".
Jun 15, 2011 at 13:32 comment added Rob Moir If we're adding close reasons, I'd like to make it "Likely to be illegal, or dangerous". As well as questions I feel conflicted about from an ethical or legal viewpoint, I've also seen ones that I thing might be dangerous, e.g. the 'fridge as a rack' question - water and electricity don't mix!
