    in reality if you nuke someones private computer you'll loose your account with that isp if caught. if its a biz you down...then you get busted. if the person whose private computer you downed is some kind of an official your busted.

    Look on the bright side.

    Yes in the USA hackers (proven beyond reasonable doubt) can face custodial sentences. This seems reasonable.

    Here in the UK they merely have to suggest that you have encrypted files, if you forget your password you can go down for 6 months anyway under the RIP act (apparently)

    I don't think there has yet been a precedent for this though

    Hmmm... someone here was referring to the case against Dmitry from Russia... he wasn't extradited, he was busted when he came to the US for a Defcon meeting.

    One name, Kevin Mitnick!
    If you don\'t tell me what I want to know, in 5 minutes I\'ll be the only person left standing at this table...5 minutes after that, I\'ll be the only person left standing in this room.

    I would imagine that you could more or less hack with out a care in the world if your in some third world country.
    Its not software piracy. I’m just making multiple off site backups.

    Yeah, but what's to say the third world country even has the internet flowing there? Its always good to have some kind of anonymity when performing a hack anywhere .

    Aww, I have a new found respect for libraries now, down here. Mainly the one at the University. I go there and they let you download whatever. Fast connection. Stay as long as you want. Dumb computer admins (part-time workers) and best of all, anonymity of 10,000 plus students.

    If one day, I have enough money, I'll migrate to Cuba or New Zealand, give loads of cash to that country for not bothering me, then build the world's one of the best computer system on a remote place in that country, with a perfect Internet connection.
    Then do whatever I want
    But that just seems to be a dream...
