it’s pretty shady to be looking for legal safe harbor for scammers who rob people all over the world every day.

This is an argument that happened entirely within your own head, not in this thread. I think I made it clear right from the start I'm against scammers and approve of (ethical) actions taken against them, but I'm also against people who dox, invade privacy, engage in vigilantism, and gain unauthorised access to other's computer systems (particularly when it's for profit and ego). These are not mutually exclusive, there is no disconnect there. I even gave an example of more appropriate actions to take against scammers, notably actions that are actually effective.

Criticism against "justice" porn is not remotely the same thing as condoning scammers. You're arguing in bad faith and you know it.

Observing criminals in action is not vigilantism. Discussing how that could be construed as illegal behavior is shady.
