> wonder how close the laws with US are ( I want to be a good citizen) Since you guys don't have a legal system (you have at least *53* legal systems), you're probably at greater risk. I know the US Justice Department used to have a project that tracked all the crimes in the US, according to all the laws. Some years back they gave up (the total then stood at 29,000), stating that the legal situation in the US was too complex for anyone to be completely certain as to whether a particular act was a crime or not. (I also recall the case [roughly 20 years back?] where someone in Tennesee took offence at an "adult" BBS operating in California. Dismayed that it was apparently legal in California, they set up a situation where they dialed into the BBS, set up a download, brought in a 10-year old kid and told him to hit "enter" [then rushed him out before he saw anything], and extradited the California couple who ran the BBS to Tennesee to stand trial for corrupting the morals of a minor. Put at least one of them in jail.) ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Bodily exercise, when compulsory, does no harm to the body; but knowledge which is acquired under compulsion obtains no hold on the mind. - Plato, The Republic victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm http://www.infosecbc.org/links http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ http://twitter.com/rslade _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
