What is Computer Crime Law?

  1. Computer crime (or cybercrime) law deals with the
  2. broad range of criminal offenses committed using a
  3. computer or similar electronic device. Nearly all of
  4. these crimes are perpetrated online. The internet
  5. provides a degree of anonymity to offenders, as well
  6. as potential access to personal, business, and
  7. government data.
  8. Many computer crimes are committed as a means
  9. of stealing money or valuable information, although
  10. financial gain is not always the objective. In fact,
  11. some of the most notorious incidents of computer
  12. crime involve hackers seeking to overcome
  13. government or corporate cyber security measures.
  14. Hacking is one of the most well-known types of
  15. computer crime. In this context, the term refers to the
  16. unauthorized access of another’s computer

  25. users all at once.
  26. Internet piracy is another common offense. Piracy
  27. involves the dissemination of copyrighted material
  28. without permission of the owner. Beginning in the
  29. early 1990s, music sharing websites became
  30. extremely popular, many of them operating in
  31. violation of the law. Movies, video games, e-books,
  32. and software are now pirated over the internet as
  33. well. Estimates by the entertainment industry
  34. put the annual cost of internet piracy in the
  35. billions of dollars, although there is evidence
  36. the scope of the economic impact has been
  37. overstated by the industry in an effort to
  38. persuade the Government to pass further
  39. regulations.
