I don't understand why people are comparing this to realspace crimes. I get that we have plenty of laws covering them, but the online world is completely different. It's possible for people to commit cybercrime and still be undetected. How can you arrest someone if you can't find them? The internet is still very much the wild west, and it needs to be treated as such, with lots of locks and keys. Doing anything less is negligence.
