Just to chime in my 2 cents' worth:
I'm a cynic by nature, so every time I see a question of how to get around the iPod password or OS X password, my first thought is "probably stolen!" Therefore, I don't participate in such questions.
I see many on this site that are much more optimistic than I am. They see those questions and seem to think, "Oh, a person in need! I am happy to help him/her in his/her plight!" and divulge the info.
At the same time that I feel we have a responsibility to be wise, I don't feel it is within my right to remove information because of its potential, just like I don't think a store has the right to ban Robitussin because some people might abuse it for recreational purposes. Following this analogy to its conclusion, the store's responsible action is to put the Robitussin behind the counter and require an ID to purchase. That way, a deterrent or disclaimer is made for those with ill intent, and the product is still available for those who don't abuse it.
So here's my suggestion: we should have a page somewhere on iFixit that has a well-worded disclaimer for/warning against abusing the information, along with a description of the procedure. Any questions about the topic would then be answered by linking to that page.
The result would be access for those who really need it, and legal coverage/awareness for those who might try to abuse the information. This seems to me to be the best between the worlds of responsible and informative.
