Not really ... the OP asked a question with the apparent aim of having his actions justified or condemned. From a legal point of view it's 'wrong'.
I'm not sure how you hope to get beyond the rights and wrongs of the law when the definitions you use for words like 'deceit' are essentially legalistic?
In any case, I happen to think it's a good law. Many broadband packages are capped in one way or another (mine included) so those who take a free ride on them are committing a very real act of theft. Why should someone take something I've paid for without my permission?
