replyGood luck convincing the current DOJ to do anything useful at all though! It is currently intentionally stacked with incompetent cronies who have been told that their job is to attack the President's enemies and ignore the misdeeds of his allies.
It will remain like that until he's gone (and not replaced with another Republican wannabe dictator).
You may be disappointed in how little a democrat president (who will also have taken billions of dollars from the tech lobby) will be willing to go after these tech firms over crimes that are several years old (as of 2029) much less contemporary bad behavior.

replyI'm 99% sure the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act covers this. The problem is that it seems that none of the victims want to, or are brave enough, to sue a company with absurd amounts of funding.

replySame FBI that prosecuted the Epstein crime ring so aggressively!
replyIt shouldn't actually take that much bravery. If your case isn't completely frivolous, isn't your maximum loss limited to the court filing fees and a lawyer payment that you know in advance and can decide when to stop paying? It's not the same as getting sued.
replyUh huh.
replyIt can’t be a coincidence that all the targets have been tech services that are likely to engage with them after the fact.
Had this gone after a bank or a government agency someone would be going to jail.
I'm pretty sure it's already illegal to hack others.
replyAgent technology labs are likely exempted of this due to the significance ascribed to their work.
