This is a touchy issue. I can understand both parts of the arguement. Personally I say it's up to the staff here at ifixit to make the decision. Apple facilitated my EX-girlfriend by showing her how to override my password and get access to my MacBook while I was In school and my MacBook ended up being destroyed because of it. I called Apple and asked why they would tell someone how to override my password without my authority and their answer was that as long as whoever is calling with this type of inquiry has the serial number to the device in question that they disclose any information pertinent to the inquiry. So, in other words people can just call Apple or visit an Apple forum and find out how to override or delete a password. so, if we don't do it here then people will just find out somewhere else to get the information. Luckily my logic board remained intact but the rest of my machine was destroyed, Although Apple facilitated this by showing an unauthorized user how to gain access to my machine they refused to cooperate in any way to get my machine fixed, I had to come out of my pocket and replace &@&% near the whole machine. On the other hand, I know that there are plenty of people out there that for whatever reason forget their passwords and need this help. Banning this info. from this site is futile. It serves no purpose. Everyone here has the option of answering or not answering these types of questions, answer at your own discretion.
