Right... but who's interest should the law here represent? There is no single common interest: this guy wants to install spyware and hijack pictures of customers for his own ends; apple doenst want that; customers dont want that (or even, of course, know about it!).
So "immorality"-wise, who here are you empathising with?
I, as a customer entering a store, do NOT want any burden to go and google whether that store has been hijacked by spyware and my data shared, etc.
I want ZERO such burden. And i would expect the police to seriously deter any such "stunts".
This guy has a sob story in which he's the hero... are you just going to take his framing?
Almost none. Which is why there was no further prosecution.
> Why is that something that needs legislation
Because this is very similar to other acts that could have worse consequences. Consider instead of "installed funny spyware on apple laptops" was replaced with "installed funny spyware on ATMs".

Empathise with the random guy in the store.
