Radio Code Requests

[tubeway]

In the motoring section - there are often requests for people asking for radio codes. While I accept that people do lose their codes and may need to find out what it was. The practice of giving out these codes without any further checks is irresponsible and could be aiding illegal activities. It would be easy to find codes for stolen radios by this method.
Unless there can be some way of checking that the radio in question is not stolen - then the practice of giving out radio codes should be banned from this site

There are umteen websites that can give you codes for car radio's so, why not AB?

[tubeway]

Because when a person gives a radio code without a check - they could be aiding a crime. If it is harder to get a code - then your radio is less likely to be stolen (which is the point behind the codes in the first place)

Just because lots of sites do it - it does not make it right

There is lots of info on this site that, strictly speaking, aid and abet crime.

How to download from limewire and similar sites, how to download films, how to copy commercial videos and dvds, how to get cracks for pirate sotfware....

and none of that makes it right - which is why I would like to do something about it
