It's quite disturbing that people expert in technology (such as HN visitors are) should not comment on the matter because they have no 'law' qualification.

Oh no you say? it applies to everyone ? OMG!

Here's my draft legislation: get rid of the laws used to incriminate Aaron as they are crazy, overreaching and unjust. No need to polish a turd and I'm sure real crimes are already covered by non computer laws.
