  1. Re:Ah, so THAT'S how they can get away w' entrapme on Microsoft Tricks Hacker Into Jail · · Score: 2, Informative

    For everyone who's ready to jump on this and scream "Entrapment!" let's do two things first:

    1. Read TFA. From TFA: "Like many others, Genovese downloaded a copy. Unlike others, he posted a note to his website offering it for sale."

    2. Learn TFD of Entrapment. From Wikipedia: Entrapment is when someone is "induced (or entrapped) by the police to commit [a crime]. For the defense to be successful, the defendant must demonstrate that the police induced an otherwise unwilling person to commit a crime."

    Come on everybody, think. You hear Microsoft and US Government and you assume they set the guy up, cuz they are *always* wrong.... He knowingly broke the law, he did that a lot. No news here.
