    That was a fun read with some interesting facts I never knew… But I think you put some weird spins into it.

    Like I don’t think Americans are commiting 3 felonies a day, and I’d really be curious about the explanation of that.

    And I dont think lying about your age is applicable to the CFAA without some wild lawyering to consider it impersonating someone else to gain unauthorized access to protected data.

    But maybe I suck at understanding legal writing

      My source is a lot of reading on Techdirt, and their source is the explanation in Three Felonies A Day: How the Feds Target the Innocent by Harvey Silverglate, but please, if you have doubts, I encourage you to dive deep.
