Marozi:

This has already come up, though. In POA Lupin tells
Harry that the map would encourage him to endanger
himself by sneaking out- not from malice, but simply
as a manifestation of the young Marauders' boyish high
spirits.  

The map obviously does have an "agenda" of its own
(being "up to no good") and has been already
identified as potentially dangerous and
not-to-be-trusted, without being evil like Riddle's
diary.  I don't expect the issue to come up again,
though, since I think Harry has more or less outgrown
the "sneaking out for the thrill of it" phase, and I
don't think the map holds any darker influence than
that.
