> law prohibits accessing a computer without authorization, or in excess of authorization

Excess is a very broad condition, and deliberately so. The law doesnt say what counts as auth one way or another, that's up to the courts to interpret.

It seems beyond doubt that any reasonable court would find this guy did not have auth to install anything, let alone spyware.
