@womble@infosec.exchange "I am an idiot" is very very much in CFAA/wire fraud territory, and intent isn't really at issue. It is absolutely covered by plenty of existing law, just whether any AG wants to pick up the case.
I know maybe a bit too much about this.

@quinn@social.circl.lu every subpart of 18U.S.C. 1030 (a) includes the word "intentionally", or the phrase "knowingly and with intent", which would seem to suggest that intent is at issue. What's your legal theory for how this event is a felony under the CFAA?
