If Hacking Is Outlawed Only Criminals Will Hack...Your Computer (Reblog)

Not sure how likely this is to stand, but the German Supreme Court today ruled that the German police could not secretely break into suspects' computers. This overturns a 2006 ruling in favor of hacking into computers.

These issues are forever being muddied on our side of the pond. We know where the RIAA stands on the issue, and basically our government can happily do whatever it wants. As always.

Just remember never to upgrade your current hardware firewall to a newfangled hardware-DRM'd model.
