Another step in the ironically entitled Operation Enduring Freedom - Hackers face life imprisonment under 'Anti-Terrorism' Act. Oh yes, "Justice Department proposal classifies most computer crimes as acts of terrorism". And they do it retroactively, for any computer crimes committed in the last five years, too. As if by magic, ping, you're a terrorist. Congratulations! Also, teachers of computing courses, parents, and people who answer questions on mailing lists, will be magically rendered terrorists the instant their student, child, or helpee commits a crime.
