This is absolute rubbish. Let's have a look at the Waterloo CS 458 assignments: <http://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~dstinson/CS_458/F13/F13-slides.... Every one of those assignments that has you do practical work has you do it against a Waterloo-hosted virtual machine (as obviously anything else would be potentially illegal).
I think there are some kind of misunderstand here. What I did attacking is the Waterloo-hosted virtual machine! I was brute force the password of users of a web app hosted on that machine. I ask the professor before doing that and the professor said i am allowed to do that
