Most vending machines are designed to dispense a certain amount of product in exchange for a certain
amount of money. However, many vending machines for newspapers operate on a different principle.
Money for one newspaper opens the machine but when open, all of the newspapers are available to be
taken by the buyer (of course, this rarely happens because few readers want more than one copy of the
newspaper). These machines are called "honor boxes" because the vendor trusts that the buyer will
behave honorably.

Answer:

to take only as many newspapers as one has paid for

Explanation:

"Behaving Honorably" means to act in a socially acceptable way that is perceived as "good". Paying 5 cents for a newspaper and taking only one paper is seen as morally good. Preventing, reporting, or any type of changing the machine or its features defeats the purpose of relying on people to behave honorably.
