The word "soon" does not appear anywhere in the article. The original title is "Are You A Teenager Who Reads News Online? According to the Justice Department, You May Be a Criminal".
- sp332 14y agoI may have misunderstood the article, but hasn't it been determined in courts that the current version of the CFAA doesn't criminalize ToS breaches? I thought the article title was referring to a proposed change to the act. Edit: when I posted the article, I added the word [Soon] to the title.
- ncallaway 14y agoYes, to my knowledge so far courts have held that breaching the ToS is not a violation of the CFAA. The proposed bill, as written, would change that. I think the interjection into the title is accurate, and makes the title less hyperbolic.
- eli 14y agoThe original title is misleading.
- venomsnake 14y agoIt is not - only few of the circuits has rejected the arguments. Until there is SCOTUS decision this reading of CFAA is the law of some parts of the land.
