The account holder violated the contract with the serviceprovider. The “hacker” has no agreement with anyone so they violated nothing. They found a key on the ground and used it in a lock.
Yeah. It comes down to Freedom to roam in Northern Europe and squatters rights in the extreme physical parallel. Entering is fine as long as there is no breaking.

But I think your point is the strongest. It doesn’t matter what either of us think. It totally depends on the justice system that has jurisdiction and those rules could be anything.
