And what repercussions does a company like that have to fear? None. Legislation worldwide needs to catch up with tech badly.

Legislation worldwide needs to catch up with tech badly.
- johnisgood 2y agoThis has been an on-going issue for decades, I believe. Will this ever happen? Do people in control want it to happen?
- krick 2y agoIs it really completely legal? That would surprise me. And, of course, is it is, it shouldn't be. I mean, in the end, it's just how you frame it, so it surely must be a viable class action lawsuit. When a teenager playfully hacks into someone's completely unprotected IoT anyone could walk into, he is breaking the law for some reason. When your business is not doing anything "wrong", but it provides a technical service targeted to businesses who actually produce malware and do harmful stuff like that, you can end up in prison for a lifetime. So surely there must be a way to frame this kind of thing as criminal activity too.
