People Not Happy With Argentine Ruling
from the encouraging-hacking dept
Following up on yesterday's story about the judge who said hacking a website isn't illegal in Argentina, many people in Argentina are upset by all the news coverage that they think misinterprets the judge's ruling. They're afraid this will make Argentinian hackers more aggressive in hacking pages, or in creating viruses. Of course, the simple solution would be for Argentina to just extend the law to make sure it covers the internet.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
