I don't see this as an issue, unless expressively forbidden.

The goal is to win, by all means necessary. Like war.

I'm almost 60 now, but in my twenties I thought "why don't teams have people in the stands to do just this, steal the signs."

I was a phreaker back then and always wanted to call the Twins dugout just to see if I could.

Sports is explicitly not like war. There's actual rulebooks, and regulators with the power to completely ban teams and players.

Stealing signs using a cameras/video/technology is forbidden.

Four people have already lost their jobs over this, additionally, Astros were fined $5 million and lost four draft picks.
