I can relate to the reasoning behind the law as otherwise defendants would be arguing about every single instance of computer evidence and most computer evidence (e.g. logs) is reliable to some degree. I think there needs to be a way to distinguish between simple computer evidence that is recording facts versus complex computer evidence that requires detailed knowledge of the software involved.
