Maybe i missed it, but does anyone know the ACTUAL LAW that they were charged with? Since FBI agents made the arrest I am assuming it was a US statue that they were alleged to have violated... Anyone know?
Should be something like: 47 USC Sec. 335
Also unless the statues allow for it the computer equipment (in this case I believe it would only be the cable modems unless software was also involved) can only be held for evidence in trail, and can not be seized just because they feel like it...
(I did a search of my US Codes but received about 60 hits...I just do not feel like dredging through 60+ fed laws...)
