In short No. Unsafe Yes, Non-compliant with the current regulations (BS7671:2008) Yes, but not illegal! If the fusebox is old and has fuse wire type fuses, it is worth upgrading it, as modern ones have RCD protection built in, which will literally save your life in the event of a fault.

Moddb is very safe. I been using it for the last several years and never (to my knowledge) ever got a virus or malware of sorts from a Mod. The staff scan all mods before they upload, so don't worry and mod away!

Contrary to what may be written on-line, dummy clips are not actually illegal in the UK. However that doesn't mean that every dummy clip sold in the UK is safe and legal, and this is where you'll need to be careful.

Yes, you can. However, the SCP article, and anything derived from it (like an illustration), will still have to be attributed and still have to be released under the CC-BY-SA license.

No, it isn't inherently safe. If you trust the author of the DLL as well as the author of the Injector, allow the exception to your virus shield and do it.

Keylogging software and hardware is not illegal. Like most technology it can be used to help or harm, however keylogging and spyware dwell in a grey ethical and legal area.

Yes and no. They are legal to sell, buy and fit – it's how you use them that can be illegal. Many companies market such laser devices as parking sensors or garage door openers and if they are used for these functions they are perfectly legal.

The short answer to this question is no. The actual emulation software and its code is not illegal, but the act of downloading commercial game ROMs – what most people use emulators for – violates various international copyright laws. Basically, emulators are illegal but also not illegal.
