What if I send my friend a signed email saying "If you kill Oskar, I 
will pay you $20,000", and my friend, knowing that I am serious, kills 
Oskar.

Is the law justified in treating the data within that email differently 
than, say, an email asking my girlfriend to pick up some milk on the way 
home from work?
