| Jul 12, 2013 at 19:04 | comment | added | Benjamin Gruenbaum | Since I'm the original poster and it seems that you're arguing about what I was asking I'll gladly clarify.This answer is exactly what I was ---expecting--- hoping for. Whether he had legitimate access to the said computer system or gained such access in malice is indeed a part of the answer. However the more interesting part was whether or not he did in fact make it that a lot of the pretty girls just 'happened' to be in his class. Rob, thanks again for the answer. | |

| Jul 10, 2013 at 19:34 | comment | added | rjzii | @Sancho This is where I'm going to neatly side-step the tampering aspect of question since the story as a whole is true even though the ethics of it (and therefore the question of tampering) are debatable. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 19:34 | comment | added | user5582 | I'm not asking rob to remove the full explanation, but to better describe whether the literal answer is yes or no. I like his most recent edit. | |

Clarified yes/no aspect of answer

| Jul 10, 2013 at 18:52 | comment | added | Flimzy | @Sancho: It's a matter of definition. This answer explains the full situation, so the reader can determine. This is far more useful than a simple "yes" or "no" as you seem to be requesting. See the definition of tamper, and you will see that Gates's activities can be considered tampering--or not. | |
| Jul 10, 2013 at 18:21 | comment | added | user5582 | If tampering is not an accurate description of what he did, then the answer is no, not yes and no. | |
