Although in that case, it was criminal RICO. Lesser burden of proof, but with civil RICO the plaintiff has to also prove causation.

In the hypothetical, assume you are calling a bank employee on a landline. IMSI is for mobile.

Thought experiment: Let's say you decide to phone someone who works for the bank. How do you know the phone number you have is correct? What if phone numbers were perceived to be "dynamic" -- subject to change at any time,

Oops. I apologise. Indeed I framed that statement backwards. If non-interactive use makes attacks "harder" then terms and conditions should not seek to prohibit non-interactive use. That is the argument in one sentence. Another

I see these problems from a different angle than the usual commentators. I continue to ask myself: Why is mobile used for important things, e.g., banking, payments, etc.? A great example is authenticating a person's identity via posse

Who imagines the law to be clear cut? There is a lack of precedent and therefore ambuiguity because the cases were never strong enough. They still are not strong enough. The ambiguity favors the incumbents, who have enough cash to financ

This commment and the OP seem to suggest that if users were in control, they would not change things. They would not add features. They would subscribe to the idea that software is "finished" (save for bug fixes). Can we agree t

In practice, ICANN DNS caters to guessable DNS names. Theoretically does anything stop anyone from providing globally visible "unguessable" DNS names, e.g., DNS names that contain unique keys. For example, the names for ianix.com
