- ransom1538 9y agoIn the US, the "Computer Fraud and Abuse Act" could apply. The case would revolve around "intent". Explaining to interrogating officers that you hated password forms and wanted revenge would be 1 to 5 years in federal prison (better than state). Explaining to interrogating officers that you accidentally copy pasted wrong - the case would be dropped. This is why you need see a lawyer always before answering questions you will be mislead.
