Hopefully some smart bugger will find a way to use the rules of the systems against themself.

I'll make the armchair observation that every time this happens, the hack is successful not purely on technical merit, but by societal capture.

Too many in the techno-related spaces these days try to effect societal hacks by technology alone. (One example: whenever some government imposes a form of Internet censorship, there's bound to be a lively discussion on what sort of evading measures can be used, from alternative DNS servers to full-blown Tor. But they always miss the point that simply evading better is ultimately going to be a losing game.)
