I don't know about Canadian law, but if slammer was in the US, he could
get 5 years. Besides, it's just flat out obnoxious behavior.

Maybe not. One provision of that law is that it must be associated with interstate commerce. Email qualifies because it's a business tool, but I wouldn't think usenet does.

Wouldn't it be wild for Mr. Dr. Karen Grear with two sexual predator
convictions to get another felony here. That could be life in prison,
which would probably be less than two weeks for krause...

If memory serves, you've claimed to be suffering from a heart condition
and you claim to be a cancer survivor, and you're the one who makes
threats and involves "motorcycle gang members" in your threats.

Therefore, your life expectancy probably is less than mine. Oh, and you
don't have medical insurance.

It really must suck to be you...

Oh, how's that losing motorbike racing team doing?

I KNEW someone would bring up U.S. v Baker, that's why I asked!!! You do
realize that he was aquitted of all original counts, right? The only
thing they could get him for was a trumped up charge when they couldn't
persue the original charges.

You wanted a cite that the internet is considered a form of interstate
commerce under the United States Code. I gave you one. His quilt or
innocence is irrelevant to this conversation, but the ibls.com cite,
given above, is completely relevant.

The internet itself is considered a form of interstate commerce under

Actually, it's considered a "channel" of commerce over which interstate (and international) commerce takes place. The power of regulation seems to hinge around activities having an economic impact. And as you know, if you've been following the attempts to regulate internet activity by state and federal governments, it's far from being settled.
