It's funny how in one breath the government tells us that there is no reasonable expectation of privacy for data on the internet and in another the DMCA says that the act of knowingly breaking any security, no matter how weak, is a serious crime.


And in the other breath say making a GET request to AT&T following some obvious pattern of IDs makes you a cyber criminal.


And in fact securing something can be interpreted by some as intent to deceive. Only terrorists use PGP and really serious encryption.
