If I broke into your home tonight to play a prank on you and then handed you a white paper about how to better secure it, how would you feel?

Breaking and entering vs. playing a harmless video at the end of the day in school.

False equivalence.

Unlawful access to a computer network is often a far more serious crime with stiffer penalties.

So perhaps you’re right that it is a false equivalence.

except in the case of my home all my doors were unlocked. I would definitely appreciate a paper about how to secure my home, especially if the intruder took great care not to cause any damage or disturbance.
