Sure. Yes. But that punishment doesn't need to be multiple felony convictions and 30 years in prison for a minor, non-violent, victimless crime that nobody directly affected is interested in prosecuting. That's all.
- pyre 14y agoPlease read my post suggesting a tiered system. A tiered system would set limits in specific circumstances 'in stone' so that there isn't this idea that all computer trespasses can be sentenced on the same scale (e.g. from 0 - 30 years). The specific circumstances can take into account things like: - Did the defendant aim to profit financially from the actions? - Was the defendant attempting to cause malicious harm? (i.e. he didn't want to profit, but he was trying to cause damage) etc. The most innocuous being "no financial gain + no malicious intent."
