--- Quote from: Demian on November 07, 2013, 01:11:55 PM ---Wikipedia points to 18 USC § 1030. I tried to read it but damn... Are humans actually understand to read that? --- End quote --- I read it. It pretains to hacking and fraud. Here: http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1030 It basically says if you accessed a secured computer without authorization and that computer is certified to hold personal data and/or classified/protected data you're breaking the law and are entitled to a fine, imprisonment depending on your motives and how you did it, or both. That's the gist. A lot of it is about people who hack computers to blackmail and emotionally harm people e.g. section (a), (7) and people who hack computers to get money e.g. section (a) (4) The one thing I can see us getting him with is section (a) part (5) - accessing a protected computer with intent to cause harm/damage to the computer and subsequently causing loss (does not define what type of loss. Money? Data? This is the important bit. Also, possible bonus prison years if the attack can be described as "reckless") There's probably other sections more targeted towards DDoS attacks. This is mainly about unauthorized access, like I said. And I could easily be wrong. |

Locking all threads relating to dosing/speculation/e-lawyering now. Giving attention to these idiots is a waste of everyone's time. |
