> classify having this information breached as a crime by the holder of the information The source of the problem in this case is that the CFAA is too loose/broad and the penalties are absurd. The solution is to fix that. Make it so that the only penalties available are proportional and innocuous actions like reporting vulnerabilities are bright-line not illegal whatsoever. You're essentially suggesting cold war style MAD as a solution to the government foolishly supplying toxic waste to children who are then found using it to poison people they don't like, under the theory that if everyone can poison everyone then everyone will have to behave. Better to clean up the toxic waste than ensure equal access to it. |
