If the code is written by the owner, in such a way that the resources are obtainable, it is a little odd that the onus is on someone else to assume the owner intended the code to do something other than what it does.

I haven't given this much thought, but you're reminding me of something one of my professors liked to say when we were having trouble programming: "Computers do exactly what you tell them to do, but not often what you want."
