We can trace the lineage of this strategy back to the popular phrase “skateboarding is not a crime”, a slogan that was used on bumper stickers, that in the words of Jeff Ferrell, were pasted on “cars, [skateboarders’] boards, and at times over ‘Skateboarding In This Area Prohibited by Law’ signs.” The criminalization of routine computing activity is an amazing opportunity to refuse to equate criminalization with bad conduct—to push through the idea that the criminal law creates the distinction between appropriate and inappropriate action.
