Myspace Charges

10:57 PM Thu, May 15, 2008 |

I think it's interesting to mention that the charges in the indictment, conspiracy and accessing computers without authorzation to obtain information to inflict emotional distress, have only been used so far to go after computer hackers. So this case seems to be a first.
I was told the US Attorney in Los Angeles had been working on this, at least, since January and maybe longer. They took the case because Myspace is headquartered in Beverly Hills. Any trial will take place in California.
