unbounded fedgoons

if you'd any doubt that there's no boundary on US federal overreach, consider the indictment of scumbag lori drew, the "adult" neighbor who stalked and manipulated teen megan meier (now dead, via suicide) mercilessly via MySpace.

the US "justice department" is basically doing what the "treasury department" did at mt. carmel (waco) — issuing a press release, jackboot style. the indictment is a disgraceful piece of shit employing the almighty US empire as the enforcement arm of MySpace terms of service. read it!

the charges are:
  • conspiracy

  • accessing protected computers to obtain information

  • aiding and abetting and causing an act to be done
serious question: how could anyone not be ashamed to participate in such drivel?

here's the cited conspiracy law:
If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

If, however, the offense, the commission of which is the object of the conspiracy, is a misdemeanor only, the punishment for such conspiracy shall not exceed the maximum punishment provided for such misdemeanor.
hmmm, something tells me "interstate commerce" will be invoked before the traitor sig at the end, huh? shocker!

accessing protected computers to obtain information:
(a) Whoever—
[...]
(2) intentionally accesses a computer without authorization or exceeds authorized access, and thereby obtains—
[...]
(C) information from any protected computer if the conduct involved an interstate or foreign communication;
[...]
(c) The punishment for an offense under subsection (a) or (b) of this section is—
[...]
(2)
[...]
(B) a fine under this title or imprisonment for not more than 5 years, or both, in the case of an offense under subsection (a)(2), or an attempt to commit an offense punishable under this subparagraph, if—
[...]
(ii) the offense was committed in furtherance of any criminal or tortious act in violation of the Constitution or laws of the United States or of any State; or
aiding and abetting and causing an act to be done:
(a) Whoever commits an offense against the United States or aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures its commission, is punishable as a principal.
(b) Whoever willfully causes an act to be done which if directly performed by him or another would be an offense against the United States, is punishable as a principal.
for those bothering to read the piece of shit indictment, the section OBJECT OF THE CONSPIRACY essentially concludes logically that anyone violating AOL or google or MySpace or any other computer joint TOS is guilty of the same fucking thing they're charging lori drew with. dress it up with the C word (conspiracy), and now a non-crime has been elevated to the planning in secret of a non-crime, which... wow, i guess that's a crime! sure sounds like a crime.

these fedgoons aren't worthy of life. you gotta read this crap. the entire doc is simply the psychotic magnification and elaboration of piddly bullshit. why? because they haven't yet crossed the line into overt usurpation of every local matter. jesus christ, it even goes into the tort of "intentional infliction of emotional distress". fedgoon behavior long ago reached the point where it's almost a waste to analyze it in detail. they're in green=orange territory, sporting a humongo-cannon.

maybe someone with some balls will bash lori drew's skull in for her. leave the powermonger PR squad out of it.
