Don't you need several hundred points in order to downvote? I'd think that would make it a lot more difficult to brigade on HN.

All these people here defending the CFAA, as if it's good law or something. "How dare he connect on that host on that port! He should've known better! He got exactly what he deserved!" It would be funny if it weren&#x

I was ashamed to be an American when the PATRIOT Act passed and when it was reauthorized. And today, I get to be ashamed to be an Australian, too. There's no need for these laws, and they'll be abused to do anything but "figh

Weird. 137 points, posted 2 hours ago... and already it's moved off the front page on HN. Again, what's up, admins? This and the Kim Dotcom / Snowden / NZ spying story both appear to have been hastily removed from the f
