So the actual crimes are far better enforced by more accurate legislation. Not swept up by an overly broad, and borderlom irrational interpretation of the CFAA.
For ex: the accused is still authorized to access the computer. A cashier at a grocery store is authorized to open/close the til all day long.
These may present opportunities but shouldn't be the focus of any crime. The theft itself is already firmly in the criminal code as being illegal.

The fact it was computers doesn't change things.
