It goes along the lines of properly displaying a "NO TRESPASSING" sign at
the border/edge of a property.  It is (essentially) a "due diligence" upon
the part of the party attempting at legally protecting themselves from any
liability.

Subject: Remote Access Banners

Can someone point me to the statues that govern the need for remote
access warning banners, such as those used on telnet or ftp servers?
Are there any cases where a banner was not used, and consequently an
attacker was not successfully prosecuted or/and got a reduced
sentence?
