Legalities are wierd enough with extraterritoriality. And then you add in
using satcom and shadowboxes and tracing is actually something you don't
have to worry much about. Use cool ASIST to keep the brainburners off you
(or use terminal mode and pump up your skills) and you're pretty safe sofar
as it goes.
Just as in real life, if you want to be a real hacker you sure as hell
better figure out a way to hide your connection path. But we've covered that
already (check the archives). Me, I'm more a phreaker guy, lot more fun
IMHO.
