Aaron Swartz did far, far less, but took his own life because of how draconian the CFAA is.
I agree: these people should be prosecuted. I'd also argue that Ticketmaster in this case was acting as a criminal conspiracy.
- raldi 6y agoThe statute of limitations on the CFAA is two years.
- baryphonic 6y agoYes, but it's from "the date of the act complained of or the date of the discovery of the damage." Also, the article states that Ticketmaster is under a deferred prosecution agreement for CFAA. So they get to pay a pittance of a fine, and make some internal "policies" and get off scot free.
