Use of a Hacked Website
Question
Is it permissible to use hacked websites (without payment) owned by a non-Jew (such as music applications, etc.) not for livelihood purposes and the like? And what is the ruling regarding such websites owned by a Jew? (Is there a law of "Zuto shel Yam" in this case?)
Answer
Shalom Rav
If the site is owned by a Jew, it is prohibited.
If the site is owned by a non-Jew, leniency is allowed.
