Cotour: In the case of JPL, the hacked material is almost certainly safe to use by anyone. JPL is not in the business of spying or spreading disinformation. They are in the business of flying planetary probes, a business that is very difficult and challenging. If they let themselves play games with their data for other irrelevant reasons (to them), they would risk getting sloppy.

This story I think explains much of China’s recent success on the Moon. They used American know-how to make it happen.

Is it always “safe” to hack technology and designs?
