I bet if you came into my room and ripped anything out of anything you would leave with a knuckle sandwich and a foot in your a$$, regardless of how illegal, immoral or dangerous the item might be. You need to take a lesson from the Texas rangers. They will shoot your ass into tiny pieces and stomp on them if need be but when they stop you they are always respectful. They refer to you as sir or madam. They inquire (respectfully still) as to the possibility that you may have a legitimate excuse for speeding, weaving, throwing pot roaches out the window or whatever. When and if it is determined that you are only a common law breaker you are still respectfully requested to comply with the ticket, search or arrest. They do not become violent or rude until after you have done so. Now is this not a much more mature and civilized way to conduct business? Don't you think this approach will go a long way to elicit cooperation?
Somehow I am reminded of the Dilbert cartoon strip and the character, Mordack, preventer of information technology.
You are sticking your neck out where you will get it either guilliotined, or garrotted if you continue to post messages like the above.
It is Barry's JOB to secure the networks he is responsible for. Securing them also means removing ANY and ALL non-authorised equipment attached to the networks, when he finds such items.
If a user on those networks willfully want to violate the policy they have been informed on being in force on those networks, their non-authorised equipment will be removed whether they like it or not.
Barry is kindda nice by just ripping it out of the LAN socket, normal procedure would be using a 5 pound forehammer on the equipment while they watch.
You better go back to lurking some more, instead of the powerposting spree you are on at the moment.
