Is the intent of existing law considered as part of the concept of common law? Would the average member of the jury really not understand this? Why couldn't a prosecutor receive an indictment and then argue this before a court and jury and

Would the charge be burglary for unauthorized access, or burglary if information was stolen after unauthorized access, and otherwise breaking and entering or just entering? To that, yes. If the information that was stolen was then used to c

With regard to the theory that attractive workers make other workers more productive, I do not know if that is true and I am not arguing it. And I also would not argue that sitting in front of a computer all day requires you to have acne or

Was it really the case that someone could steal information from a computer and not be charged with a crime, or indicted by a grand jury and then successfully prosecuted under existing law, and that until recently, when information was stol

Imagine a world where professional sports teams recruit the least talented players, and companies seek out the bottom of the class engineers, while everyone cheers how outstandingly ugly the models are because advertisers only want the most

This is a common pattern for objects that are force multipliers. For example, the use of firearms and/or automobiles in the commission of a crime leads to harsher sentencing. Anything that gives the everyman an outsize advantage, like a com

The problem is that there is already a well developed set of laws to govern human interactions with each other and with the environment. This is like the broken patent system: it's something that has been done for 40 years, except on a comp

Who was more valuable, the tool maker or the tool user? The tool user created value, but the tool maker made it possible. And do we need to consider the parents of each, for their part? These are probably well discussed in philosophy. My an
