5.33 Suppose a denial-of-service attack shuts down two dozen major websites, including retailers, stock brokerages, and large corporate entertainment and information sites, for several hours. The attack is traced to one of the following perpetrators. Do you think different penalties are appropriate, depending on which it is? Explain why. If you would impose different penalties, how would they differ? (a) A foreign terrorist who launched the attack to cause billions of dollars in damage to the U.S. economy. (b) An organization publicizing its opposition to the commercialization of the Web and corporate manipulation of consumers. (c) A teenager using hacking tools he found on a website. (d) A hacker group showing off to another hacker group about how many sites it could shut down in one day. 6.27 The ECPA does not prohibit universities from reading student email on its computers, just as it does not prohibit businesses from reading employee email on company computers.

Tell me what parts you think are good and what should change. 6.28 Find a decision made in a lawsuit by an employee who was fired because of photos or other material the employer found on the employee’s social network pages.
