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! | |
Jun 14, 2011 at 8:55 | comment | added | user9517 | I don't think we need to modify the FAQ those of us that vote all sing from the same sheet already. | |
