Sometimes the new e-world has to face facts like it lives within existing society and existing law:
The creator of software designed to surreptitiously observe individuals’ online activities has been indicted for allegedly violating U.S. federal computer privacy laws, local and federal authorities said Friday. If convicted, Carlos Enrique Perez-Melara could face a maximum sentence of 175 years in prison and fines of up to $8.75 million. His current whereabouts are unknown. Four individuals who purchased the Loverspy software to illegally spy on others were also indicted.
I am surprised by the 175 years. I was thinking 185 would be more appropriate.
