I have a serious moral dilemma.

If you were offered $1000 for every piece of spyware program you coded that can break through today's anti-spyware programs, would you do it?

Edit, POLL

1000? Thats it? How many of these programs can you honestly picture yourself writing in a year?

Well, if you think about it, they don't have to be huge programs. Simply find some bugs in firefox, mozilla, explorer, etc. and exploit it.

Apparently your ethics and morals are more . . . flexible.

qft...however, the poll doesn't look good for most people having morals and ethics...

Ha! Not only does this person wish to create spyware but they want to pay a slave wage to boot. I'd stay far away from this.

I don't see the moral dilemma... you can write it's your decision whether or not to deploy it. In any case $1000 a piece is not much money at all.
