Stealing a whole database via the internet is illegal....duh!!
So, when’s Team 0bama going to be arrested for illegally accessing Facebook user data for campaign purposes?
Bad facts making bad law.
I am not seeing a problem here..
They were told they were not authorized, but they used a different address to get the data.
They were not authorised. Period. Faking an IP address to get it does not give you authorization back, in fact I thik it opens you up to worse trouble for violating the original ban.
Its like you are banned from a liquor store, but you go in wearing a mask...
doesn’t work in my book, and has NO OTHER global implications
(the author of this article is too clueless of the topic, and tried to write something dramatic)
