Re: I still don't see how this is illegal It is not irrelevant. It very relevant. They are relying on the police to keep them safe in the absence of any real security. The police aren't their personal security task force whose purpose is to allow them to ignore basic security. This is the same thing as leaving your doors wide open at night and then calling the police every morning because something is missing. After the first time, the police would probably tell you to close your doors and if you ignore them, by the third time you call they would stop coming out. But since the police don't understand technology, they label cases like this "hacker" cases and pretend as if the person doing it is some kind of computer genius impossible to stop. The police are not an unlimited resource, if someone doesn't want to implement even the most minimum amount of security to weed out 99.99% of crime against them, the police should not even try to help them. |
