Only when the communication can be clearly distinguished from normal usage or accidents. And when we're discussing how laws should be, we need to find a clear definition on exactly where the line is drawn. Given that it appeared that several drew their line were vaguely, I pointed out the inner workings of computer networks and the legal necessity of clearly drawn lines. Not until a technical description of something that showed the difference was provided, was anything really found that could differentiate the two cases from both a legal and computer engineering point of view.
That is what the legal process is for, the process seems to be working correctly in this individuals case. An allegation of wrong doing has occured, the legal process has been started, and now it will go to trail to determine if there was a clear crossing of the legal boundries. I would find more credence with your argument if he was not being charged under existing statues (SP)


Yes, and that's why I find it quite funny that they, unlike you, responded to my posts with flaming instead of answering my question Quite strange, considering their opinion was almost the same as mine, but they tried as hard as they could to interpret it differently and ignored most of what I wrote.
Happens more then we like..
