Does anyone know of a court case where a hacker was exonerated in part because of "Welcome" was displayed on a gateway system?
Here's a good place to start. Grabbed this from a hackernews.com link this August. JERUSALEM (AP) - Four teen-agers charged with hacking into the computer systems of the Pentagon, NASA and the Israeli parliament pleaded innocent Thursday, the lawyer for the alleged ringleader said. Shmuel Tzang said his client, Ehud Tenenbaum, 19, broke no law when he penetrated the Internet sites of American and Israeli institutions because there was no notice on the sites declaring them off-limits.
