•   Aarons Law Tweetsheet

 

(1) Establish that breaches of terms of service, employment agreements, or contracts are not automatic violations of the CFAA.
(2) Bring balance back to the CFAA by eliminating a redundant provision that enables an individual to be punished multiple times through duplicate charges for the same violation.
(3) Eliminate the redundant provision streamlines the law, but would not create a gap in protection against hackers.
(4) Bring greater proportionality to CFAA penalties. Currently, the CFAA’s penalties are tiered, and prosecutors have wide discretion to ratchet up the severity of the penalties in several circumstances, leaving little room for non-felony charges under CFAA.
Aaron’s Law 2017 ensures prosecutors cannot seek to inflate sentences by stacking multiple charges.
The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act was signed into law during the Regan Administration, are we to assume the Internet is the same as it was over three decades ago? The answer is of course no. which is why we need Aarons Law to amend the outdated and irrelevant CFAA Law. Join us for Tweetstorm on 1/6 & 1/7 to demand Congress reintroduce #AaronsLaw
