No, I disagree. The court specifically said that it will not extend the law to
a whole class of cases for which it would criminalize individuals. It is not
narrowly confined to the case of an employee.

Again, this is not limited to an employee. BTW, it directly relates to the
Swartz case as the employees had permissive access to the systems in question
despite contracual restrictions, which is exactly the case with Aaron.

By this article and authors perspective, and he is nto a lawyer but a business
ethics expet, there was no criminal activity worthy of felony charges, while
criminal activity that is real and damaging (life taking) has not been given
even a remotely similar punishment, unlining that proposed punishments are
legally and ethically absurd. I agree that this does not tread on the original
posting.

Really? That depends how you look at it. This article points out the reasons
why the prosecution simply didn't have the law to prosecute and the specific
reasons why. And if I'm not mixing up articles, it specifically disagrees on
the actually facts of the case. Where as Orin interprets Aarons behavior
and breaking into a closet, and using unauthorized access, this article
outlines the multiple ways this conculsion is fault, especial with regard to
the forensic evidence that was found upon investigation.

If I'm not wrong, those terms were added AFTER the Swartz activities and
furthermore, there are multiple sources, including the 4th and 9th court which
are saying that such terms and conditions are not actionable for criminal
prosecution under similar conditions.

I had to use my reading glasses and I inhernetly have emotional disorders that
prevent me from reading what i don't want to hear, but YES I read everything
I posted.

That isn't what the time stamps tell me. I spent, I believe, about 2 hours
putting that message together, and a few days of reading those souces.

I didn't dump in there the large number of legal opinions that said the
prosecution was highly reluctant to go to trial because they were quite
certain that a jury in Boston would refuse conviction all together.

Personally, I'm not so certain of such rash predictions.

Yeah - I'm great at wasting time instead of excersizing like I should :(

It is completely relavent. Courts give a large amount of discretion to
actions of political activists as a form of political speach in actions
which generally do no harm to the public good. Even the blocking of the
Brooklyn Bridge by the Occupation Wall Street crowd was handed with kids gloves
by the courts.
