Going by your logic, US could proactively import a computer that is a victim of a crime from somewhere in the world onto US territory, and arrest the person responsible.
- justinclift 9y agoInteresting idea. Now you've mentioned it publicly, wonder how long until it happens? :)
- ubernostrum 9y agoIf you read the indictment, the claim alleged is that some of the computers affected were in the US at the time the crime occurred. Which would give the US jurisdiction. This is not a new, dangerous, slippery, radical, unprecedented idea in law. It doesn't lead to people digging up murder victims' corpses and importing them to other countries to give those countries jurisdiction over the murder, etc., because the law has worked this way for a very long time.
