Acting in the sense of as a devil's advocate here, but this guy went and rooted around a data repository for stuff that wasn't his... there was a case a few years ago of a guy who scripted the AT&T site to download similarly accessible data [0] and got 4 years jail for it. We can trot out the well-known Swartz story [1] here as well. Though I'm happy to have the information available in this particular case, I can't really say this is different in terms of either the letter or spirit of the law. So: when should we expect to hear this guy being charged with CFAA violation? I'm not holding my breath, and I hope he doesn't, but what he did seems as clear a violation of the law as the two examples listed here.
