This high-tech stuff is a bit complicated so bear with me.
I intend to blog on a regular basis on topics related to criminal law and the criminal justice system.
One of the areas to be touched on is the criminal law as it relates to crimes committed while on the computer. Obviously you can sit in the privacy of your home or office and commit a lot of white collar crime You can do that in a suit and tie or in your pajamas.
You can threaten people on the computer.
You can blackmail people on the computer.
You can begin with some innocent sex talk that could develop into activity that could be construed as criminal.
You can download some pornographic photos and discover that amongst this pornography are some images that are considered child pornography.
The unique thing about computers is that they create traces, footprints or fingerprints, in short a record. You are not totally anonymous on the computer.
Take care and i'll talk to you again soon.
