Summary: Some reporters were poking around on Google. They found social security numbers and other sensitive data on TerraCom's website. They tell TerraCom, which then flips out and makes a bunch of silly legal threats, including this gem:

"Because the Scripps Hackers have put the Companies in the position of having to incur the costs of potentially complying with more than 20 state data breach notification laws, the Companies are likely to look to Scripps to reimburse them for those costs."

pretty sure the DMCA and the computer fraud/abuse act are extremely broad and can be used to prosecute anyone the government wants for basically any reason as long as an electronic device was at least marginally involved.

yes.

potentially a porn company could sue you under the same logic for accessing images you didn't have links to. for example, suppose you found a link on a porn site to

https://www.pornsite.com/album/img1.jpg

and no other images links were publicly available to non paying customers.

if you manually change the last digit in the URL so it reads

https://www.pornsite.com/album/img2.jpg

and it allows you access to the image, you've done the same thing the at&t "hacker" did and you could be prosecuted for violating the terms of service of the porn site and computer fraud and abuse.

it's not the laws that are retarded, but the jurors willing to return guilty verdicts on them. where are the jury nullification dudes who would hang or acquit?

jurors are retards but who is making these laws? who is choosing to prosecute people for personal glory and career advancement? this is another case of fear-mongering law makers and faggot prosecutors gone amok.
