Since 1981? 1981? Home Depot was backdating options since 1981?! This points up a number of things. One, the founders of Home Depot probably thought it was just a neat benefit to throw the management. Sort of like working in a restaurant ... the help gets to take home whatever casserole didn't sell that night. Two, this self-dealing practice is probably more widespread and older than the tech boom. Three, people that run companies typically don't think about what their practices mean for shareholders generally or ethically. And before various corporate PR outfits flame me ... thinking about the stock price is not the same thing as thinking about the shareholder.
