User blog comment:Madaco/the legality of club penguin cheating( also known as hacking to some)/@comment-1476009-20090803185857

"Hacking" (it's not hacking, you're misusing the term. It's cheating) isn't against government rules unless stealing memberships or passwords (theft).

It is against CP rules, and can causes ban, but you won't get arrested. But it's not government illegal.
